The next chapter in dieselgate (not to be confused with ceeootweegate): the procedures that are required for all sjoemeldiesels to recover firmly. Very sturdy.

Worldwide, Volkswagen 11 million cars are sold with fraudulent software to emissietesten to the garden to lead, of which 2.4 million in Germany drive. The group, which currently harder klapjes will get this Brazilian, is dedicated already to this car so to adjust so that the NOx emissions are now below the limit.

What interventions, Volkswagen, all these 1.2, 1.6 and 2.0 TDI’s (EA 189) is going to be changed is not yet known, but the German ministry of transport today announced that, with such a 540.000 of the 2.4 million sjoemelwagens more than just a software procedure. A considerable percentage are also hardware adjustments are required, making this a considerable expense. But we knew that already, of course.

How many situations (especially as unmarketable these diesels this be, and what exactly will be changed, it is still wait and see.
