Anyone else get an email from their local dealership about testing and possibly replacing coil packs?
Email says that the service will take about an hour and a half and that they will determine if the coilpacks should be replaced, free of charge.

Is there a recall number? or campaign number?

Is there a recall number? or campaign number?Here's what I got:
"According to our records the Service Action J1 has not been completed on your vehicle.* Vehicles affected by this action may have ignition coils that could malfunction under certain conditions.* If this happens, the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will illuminate to let you know that the vehicle may experience some deterioration in performance.* In some cases, a malfunctioning ignition coil may cause a vehicle to exceed Federal emission standards.*
*
We will inspect your vehicle and as necessary install new ignition coils.* This service will take approximately an hour and a half and will be free of charge. *"

Just talked to the dealership who sent me this email, Carousel Audi. They screwed up. It was only for the push down coils. (pat, you were correct, as usual)
They did however inform me that my rollover valve needs to be replaced. I asked about the procedure, and he said there is an access door they go through under the rear seat bench. He said this is also how they replace the fuel pump. No cutting of metal.
