Mercedes must be reading these types of articles and going "what are we doing wrong?"


...if it creaks, it's probably made by VAG

Emissions Analyitics have been doing real world testing of loads of cars etc & the test is called the EQUA standard..

Remember at the height of the scandal there was a very brief news flash that VW's failed the test by the least?...this is the EQUA standard....masses of other brands who have escaped dieselgate actually pollute way more...

Some VWs are ok, some are not. Don't understand why they vary so much even within one brand and model year.

Dieselgate is the reason I will not buy a VW again, not because the car pollutes more or less than any other car, but because I believe VW lied and cheated.

Add GM/Opel/Vauxhall to your list. Their diesel ECU software was found to turn off all emissions control below 17C - so most of the year in UK!
