Feeling no pain.....

I was struggling finding the turbo on this one.

On that car there is no turbo to be found per the VIN number.

The emissions sticker is not original to that car or the VIN plate has been changed. Notice the emission sticker has information about 2006 cars. They would not of had that information in 2004.

If it is a true 2004, there are two more locations for VIN number in the engine compartment. Middle of the engine bay up at the cowl. On the product ID plate which is located in under the hood at the left fender. VIN number is also on the title. All four should match.

A fifth place for the VIN number is in the ECM. You will need Volvo- DiCE or a high end scanner to read it.

If you cannot find the product ID plate under the hood. Look on the B-pillar facing the rear right hand side door. You’ll need to open the door and look to the door hinges area to find it.

Per the VIN number on the dash.
It is a 2004 S60 with a naturally aspirated 2.4L. (Engine code 64 = B5244S6). S in the engine code is for Standard or naturally aspirated. If it was Turbocharged this would be a T not a S. Transmission is a Aisin 5 speed automatic.

All this information is encoded in the VIN number except the transmission which is determined by deduction.
Outside of Canada and the U.S. the transmission is coded in the VIN number.

Vin breakdown for VIN YV1RS64A942332420.

2 = Factory Code: Ghent, Belgium.

332420 = Chassis number.

Holy Dang!
This is a ton of info. Thank you for this, Rick.
The vins match in all those places. So I’m guessing the hood was swapped at some point.
The sticker is still on the timing cover that matches the vin information.
At least now I know what we are looking at.

Thanks again!
