Campaign 146046 (or 14604b)?

I checked my hood this morning to see if I might've already gotten the M flash or not. The only "authorized mod" sticker I saw had a campaign number of either "146046" or "14604b" (wasn't real sure from the handwriting). This doesn't appear to be the M flash campaign number, according to the TSB, and after searching here for these numbers, I came up with zilch.

Anyone have any idea what changes this sticker might be reflecting? I'm still getting only about 16-16.5 MPG, and was thinking of calling to get the M flash ("just in case", I know it's not a panacea), but if I've already got it, I don't want to waste my time...

The door jam says 11/03. I bought it May 1st, got it delivered May 5th-ish. I have not taken it back to the dealer for anything since I picked it up.

I believe the airbag recall is 1604B... are you sure you're not misreading your label?

Oh, yeah, quite possibly. I checked it when I got into the parking lot at work this morning and tried to recite it over and over 'til I got to my computer. Thanks.

Guess I'll make that M flash appointment after all, then.

LOL, yea mine's the same build date as yours, and it hadn't been flashed even to L when delivered.

Might wanna double check for a label though anyway, as mine (after they did it) is transparent, with black ink, on a black hood, lol...

You can do the brake test too: turn key to ON, then pump the brakes like heck... at some point around the 20th pump, your oil gauge will sweep over, then return... if you have at least L, I believe.

Sounds insane, but it does indeed work.
