I think 2000MY was when they switched mid-year from double to single row IMSB, so the only way to know is to look.

Mine was first registered in Italy in January 2000, so it must have been built in 1999.

There was no clear cut-off VIN.
The only way to tell for sure is to drop the tranny and look.

The switch happened sometime in 2001, so a MY2000 should have the double row bearing which is suspected to have less than a 1% failure rate.

Actually, my 2000 S had a single row.
