Volvo Penta 3589524 is a genuine OEM plate used in select Volvo Penta sterndrive upper gear housing assemblies. Current parts references place this part in DP-SMTD1 marine propulsion upper gear schematics, where it is paired with pressure plate 3852562 in the upper gear unit. Multiple current dealer and distributor listings also describe 3589524 as a thrust plate, with one source identifying it specifically as the starboard thrust plate.

Engine Compatibility
The strongest supportable fitment for 3589524 is by upper gear housing and sterndrive assembly rather than by a single engine long-block family. Current schematic references place it in DP-SMTD1 marine propulsion upper gear unit diagrams, and cross-reference channels also associate it with Volvo SX and OMC Cobra drive-side applications. Because upper gear housing hardware can vary by drive family, side, and production version, the safest fitment path is to match this plate to the exact Volvo Penta drive schematic and serial-number-based application before ordering.
Serial Number Fitment Notice
Match Volvo Penta part number 3589524 to your drive serial number and the correct Volvo Penta upper gear housing diagram before ordering. Drive-side plates and adjacent thrust hardware can vary by sterndrive family, production break, and housing version, even when the surrounding assembly looks very similar.
When This Part Needs Replacement
This plate should be replaced when it shows wear, scoring, deformation, corrosion, or damage during upper gear housing service. It is also worth inspecting anytime the surrounding pressure plate, bearing cover, seal, or related drive hardware is already apart, since wear in this section of the upper gear unit can lead to repeat labor if reused in poor condition. This service guidance is an inference based on the part's placement in the upper gear assembly and the thrust-plate descriptions in current listings.
Installation Notes
Confirm the exact application in the correct Volvo Penta schematic before installation, and compare the removed part carefully against the replacement plate. Inspect the mating surfaces, adjacent pressure plate, and surrounding upper gear housing components before reassembly. In sterndrive upper gear assemblies, exact schematic match matters more than a quick visual comparison.
Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers
Current reviewed sources continue to show 3589524 as an active Volvo Penta OEM number. Cross-reference listings also associate it with OMC 3852562, Volvo Penta 3852562-2, and GLM12662 in related thrust-plate references, which are useful comparison numbers when verifying the exact application.
Parts Desk Insight
With upper gear housing plates like this, the easy mistake is matching only by shape. Checking the exact drive schematic first usually saves time, especially when the port and starboard thrust plates in the same assembly can look more interchangeable than they really are.
