Where is Battery Date?
I've got an OEM MOLL Porsche battery and want to determine how old it is. Initial look I couldn't find a mfg date. Any suggestions on where to find this date/codes?
Thanks.

Batteries typically have to be labeled when the acid is poured in them since that is what dates a battery. Most stores, trucks that drop off batteries already filled and such as jerks not stickering or punching out the date but eh. This is one reason why I always believe in dumping a battery for a new one when it gets anywhere near its expiration. The thing can sit on a shelf for months before being purchased and that when you are supposed to punch the date tabs out. Good luck.

This is still correct info for CY2020 Moll K2 batteries.
It's on top of the negative terminal. IIRC, as shown below, this battery is 20th week of 2006.
