Coil Recall Campaign VIN specific?
I dropped my 07 Q7 at the dealer for the 35k mile service. I asked about the Ignition Coil recall and he stated that my car did not fall in the VIN range. I checked the audi website and it didn't say anything about VIN range. It was very vague and only showed all Q7's. Does anyone know if this is VIN specific or should all 07 Q7's get new coils?

According to Audi's website the notification date already passed for 4.2 and is now through September for 3.6s. Whether or not all VINs are affected is a good question, but if you have the 4.2 and your car is affected it would seem you should have already received a notification in the mail.

Never been so confused by a recall. Received letter stating needing the recall. Dealer rep said they would need the car a few days. Stopped in, seperate rep said no 3.6's affected... Called back said waiting on stock, would receive another letter from Audi...
Talked with diff Audi dealer said possible recall.
Seems like alot of words and no definitive answer. Will call Audi directly and see what they say.

Not true. My 2007 3.6 premium got the recall notice. However, I have not gotten the notice yet to take into Audi. VIN search said Aug/Sept and still not letter to go in.

What do you mean you got the recall notice but haven't gotten the notice to take to Audi? So when you enter your vin number on the audi website it tells you that you are slated for aug/sept? Or did you just choose the make/model/year and it said aug/sept?
