YouCompleteMe plugin is not working with vim 7.4.52

I was looking auto-completion plugin for python in vim editor. I found YCM as cool but It's not working with my editor.

when I open vim, it throw a warning as given below

$ vim
YouCompleteMe unavailable: requires Vim 7.4.1578+.
Press ENTER or type command to continue 

But actually, My current version of vim is 7.4.52, I don't understand why it is happening. Any help would be appreciated.

YouCompleteMe is right; your version is too old.

In Vim (as in many other applications), the third element of the version (after major.minor) is the patch level. This is a positive integer that gets incremented on each change. Here, 52 < 1578. The 52 does not represent 5200!

You can see more details in the :version output; it has a line with Included patches:
