    Had mine done a few weeks ago. Listed as campaign 274 - Ignition coil vent protection kit.

    "This effects the 430 Coupe vehicles from assembly number 57366 up to and including assembly number 67962 that have Bosch ignition coils are involved in a campaign to cover the ignition coil breather holes to help prevent premature wear of the spark plugs."

    Interesting that they state 430 'Coupe' vehicles.

    I had mine done as well. I think they simply put on new/improved rubber boots to better protect the coils.

    The assembly # plate, (silver/blk) is on the left side of your engine compartment behind the exhaust.
