Depends on whether your car is a manual transmission or Tiptronic.

If manual trans, then the -01 was only fitted from 97-99 and replaced with -02 from 00-04.

If tiptronic, could be any year from 97-04.

Beyond this, there is no way that I know to determine the actual manufacturing date from the info in the image provided. There might be some date stampings somewhere on the unit or some of the other components but that is just a guess and may require disassembly to find anything.
