can anybody read this date code? TGMO 0w20....

[gregk24]

Can anybody read this date code? On the front of the bottle it says 2011 Toyota Motor Sales, but I think that is referring to something else other than the manufacture date. On the back it has these coded letters and numbers, can anyone tell when this oil was manufactured? Thanks in advance!

Why are you asking? Going to drink it?

i would guess 4/21/10 since the number starts as 10214 and then breaks with a letter.


2011 isnt that old id be sure to shake to bottles well though!

I have two oils on hand for my upcoming OCI, one oil clearly states it was manufactured on 08/12/2014, this TGMO isn't as obvious.

I thought SN oils weren't around until 2011?

Just as you would need to reserve 2 digits for the day, or not produce after the 9th of each month.

Well I really have no idea about the date produced.
I do know it is good oil. And if you are worried about using it, just send it to me and I will put it to good use. Thank you very much.
I will send you my address if you want to send it this way
