Panasonic D23 Battery Code - RX450h
I have a question regarding the battery in my 2010 450h. I've only had the car since August, and in my proactive maintenance efforts, I am trying to verify the age of the 12v battery. It is a Lexus sourced Panasonic D23 group with the correct part number for my vehicle, but I have not been able to locate any guide for reading the Panasonic battery date code. I cannot find any engaged codes on it... Just a stamped ink number above the label where it reveals that the battery came from a Lexus dealership.
The stamped number is 170310.
The battery looks brand new, but do does the test of the vehicle. If it is the original battery, I want to replace it now before it begins to give us trouble when we least expect.
Can someone tell me how to read the above code? If I had to guess, I would guess March 17, 2010, but I want to KNOW for certain.
Thank you.
EDIT on 02/01... after two days of waiting, I have to admit that I'm very disappointed in the absence of ANY response from Lexus CS. Perhaps my expectations are unrealistic, but I'm surely not feeling the "support" right now.
