Dear oh dear oh dear. The mother of all cover-ups. The VW Group has admitted it has installed "cheat software" in its diesel car ECUs in order to artificially change the car's emissions in order to pass emissions tests.
In the US, the Environmental Protection Agency has forced VAG to recall over 400,000 TDi powered cars to have the software removed and the engines re-tuned, and the EU could fine them for every vehicle produced.
This is shameful behaviour. The classic arrogance of a big company which sees itself as too big to fail... This might just hasten my move away from diesels, and VAG group cars in general!
