These codes only applies to 2007-2014 model years.

Count in 8 from the left and that will give you the engine code.

Yes, but my 8th digit is "F" which isn't on your list. My 10th digit is "C" I think it's an old list.

doesn't cover L94 "F", the torque specs you listed the other day are off some, I know some of the oil pan bolts alone take a lot more torque than what was listed and brake caliper brackets for another

Haynes must have forgotten to include that. Here’s directly from the page...

Yeah...I was just looking into it more closely and found that it’s not a good table. Will definitely not be using it. ;)

There’s another reason I don’t use Haynes. Get a subscription to alldatadiy, it’s just like having the service manual and only costs about $1 a month.

Briefly looked into that and looks great! Will definitely divulge more time researching that as I’m ready to move on from Haynes.

Not anymore....
Nope I see it went up. They’re running a $30 off sale right now though for the 3 year(coupon code WINTER3YR) which would be $100, so that’s about 2.75 per month. For a single year it’s $10 off if you use WINTER1YR. Even at full price it’s well worth it.
