If by old you mean February 2003 (check your own link), then yes!

Default lol I saw that after I posted... However
it seems that many on here are buying coil packs, and this article doesn't state that there is any expiration. However, I'm sure after almost 4 years, they've either changed the coil packs or at least stopped covering the tab.

Default I think the issue is that not all 1.8Ts are covered by the offer; some owners>>
got a letter about it, others didn't.

Right, and I have 6 used ones to prove it. They all work, just not well.
