Noob here, for this forum.
Can anyone tell me how to determine the age of a battery from the serial number?
Specifically, an ACDelco 78PG. Got a pair in a 2500HD Duramax with date codes of PO15R.
It's a 2005 that I bought from a Chevy dealer in 2016. When trying to sell me the truck they said that they had sold it to the original owner and told me a list of maintenance items that had been done. But they didn't mention batteries.
So, stupid question - is there ANY possibility that they are 16 yr old batteries? When I bought the 11 yr old truck it had 20,000. miles on it. Now has about 56,000. I can't find anything on the ACDelco website concerning serial numbers.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Tom
