VW Emissions Scandal - The Effects
ARV_90:
It wouldn't surprise me if BMW were next , Possibly Citroen and Pugs as they use the Adblue system don't they ? How the hell are Ford doing it as every one I follow is puffing out soot :signLOL:
Paradox1:
seems to be just the diesels that have been tested so far. would be interesting to see if this whole scandal will affect the prices of new stock.
Would this mean higher road tax too?

Lots of good information there.
Note that the BMW X5 35d also goes over nox limits in one of the tests.
Doesn't bother me at all personally.
it's just american pushing out european diesels
quite happy to spew around in cummins diesel powered pickups running 50psi of boost and plooms of smoke.
FJ1000:
Its worth pointing out that the European emission test results are not in question, its elsewhere (particularly the US, where NOx guidelines are much stricter and the test is done in a lab.) The European emissions tests are much harder to game.

Yes, this is true. But I think the point is that VAG is a global company. I know it's not as simple as saying everything comes out of the same pot, but you've got to wonder how wide the fallout will reach. We can't be totally immune just because the tests were cheated across the pond rather than in Europe.
Time will tell!
