Q1: Is this a genuine OEM part?

A: The 31479627 reference is the original equipment part number, and 31386705 is the superseded reference. Both genuine OEM and aftermarket equivalents are available that match the original fit and function.

Q2: How do I confirm if it fits my vehicle?

A: Check your vehicle’s existing tailgate motor. If it is stamped with 31479627 or 31386705, this replacement will fit. Also confirm your vehicle is an XC60 within the applicable chassis range and variant code. Sending your VIN to the seller for verification is recommended.

A: If you are replacing both original drive units, they must be replaced as a pair due to a design update. If only one unit has failed and the other is the original design, consult the vehicle’s service information or a qualified technician before ordering.
