VW was the 1st to get busted and was made an example of but practically every manufacturer is guilty of cheating/lying re emissions in some way. Watch from 7:00-10:00 for more detailsTried to watch, didn't make it very far, TLDW?
So essentially bosch is to blameVW was the 1st to get busted and was made an example of but practically every manufacturer is guilty of cheating/lying re emissions in some way. Watch from 7:00-10:00 for more details
Won't have to worry about it for much longer.Who sets the future emission standards requirements? EPA? I don't think GDI and all the DEF stuff would have been engineered otherwise. New diesels are a nightmare.
I read about people making big bucks selling cars back to vw.When VW bought back the diesels, a manager at my job said it was the best car investment he ever had (as he was excited to get the 12k buy back). He then said he would never buy another VW in his life, lol.
They're allowed to dream.Speaking of Diesels, I keep seeing a number of essentially brand new (<100 miles) 2016 Touareg TDIs for sale on Autrotrader. I'm surprised they are still out there and even more surprised they are selling for essentially MSRP ($65k+++).
