It is a sticker put by the dealer (DLR #1426) stating that the recall campaign 28F2 was done on your car.
I believe recall 28F2 was for the coil packs. It affected many many Audi.

Great thanks so much. That's good to know. Does anyone know what? or where? proof of a timing belt that has been done? The guy I bought the car off of said it was done. thx

Ok so I'm hoping this is what im looking for but I need Audi experts opinion, ive been trying to find the sticker or proof of the timing belt done on my car and I think this is it! I was told it was done just before 120k and this pic has my enigine code amb and im hoping that's the 119122kms it was done.

Hi, it says: "Caution! for all Testing and adjustments.
Engine code. AMB * 119122 * note!"

AMB is the type of engine you have. I'm afraid this is only the serial number of your engine.

I don't think there's a sticker stating when the belt was changed. I cannot recall having seen any on my A4 (cannot check, I'm not an Audi owner anymore).

For mine after I bought it, I also wanted to check whether the belt had been changed as the seller stated. I asked a garagist that's specialzed in german car: he knew about an opening through where he was able to see the belt without removing lots of stuff, to visually check if it looked old or almost brand new.

Oh ok, well I took the front timing cover off and looked at the belt and it looks like its new. all the writing was clean and bright, the belt ribs were long and wide, there weren't any cracks or stretching signs so im pretty confident that it was done. im at 138000k pretty much now and theres no leaks, it quiet, and fast with no hesitation at all. even took a picture of it but my pictures suck.

looks like a pretty new belt, I make a habit of popping the timing belt cover every second oil change to check cam seals and the like and to make sure the belt isnt damaged
