So vag have announced that their solution to the emissions issue is a tea strainer and a software update?

Seems a bit simple to me??? Am I being a bit too untrusting

Mine has to go back so will report how much worse it makes it (it's pretty slow and dull as it is !) lucky it is a work car and I don't own it !

That's what Steve Berry was saying when the BBC interviewed him. I agree to a point, but it's not like VW were unaware of WHY they were being tested and what the aim of the test is. Cheating on tests is wrong whether it's a maths test, an MOT test or a test to deceive millions of motorists. the only difference is the impact if/when the cheater is caught.

I think the "solution" will make the car use more ad-blue, the "cheat" was likely done to prevent warning lights popping up when it inevitably runs out.
