Default Campaign 28FZ (2010); and coil pack recall sticker?

There's a yellow sticker which clearly says (pre-printed) "Service Campaign"up near the washer jets, on it is clearly handwritten "28FZ" and "2010". I have Googled and searched Bentley to no avail. Anyone else have this, and/ or know what it was?

This made me wonder if the coil pack recall had a sticker, or how to tell besides calling the dealer.

My VIN is WAUML44EX4N001183 in case anyone has access to this info.

Thanks,
Tom

According to this you don't have any outstanding campaigns.

Thanks

Default Definitive way you can check--manufacture date stamp

When you do a plug change, look for the manufacturing date stamp on the coil pack metal shielding. I noticed them when I did a plug change in last few weeks.

As usual w/ dating, any dates after the car's build month + year tells you the part was changed out along the way.

Thanks, both if you. I cannot wait to get to the plugs; the car is almost constantly in use!
Started on it one day and I'm embarassed to say I could not get the connectors off (between the red and black plugs). Now I've seen it on Youtube and I think I got it. Many of the tabs are broken off, plus was afraid of using too much force and breaking an expensive harness.
