you cant block people who were not at fault from renewing their vehicle and having transportation
 
uh, they absolutely can if the cars are in violation of federal law. It's up to VW to compensate the owners.
 
well despite the dealer telling me the 1.6 has no 'cheat code' he lied!

Unless forced to, my TDI will not be visiting a VW dealership anymore.

If forced to by the government, my VW will be in the shop every week since it would no longer be running right after they *fixed* it :D.

Same with my Beetle; and since my state doesn't have emissions testing (except for a small area of the state) if the gov't wants my software reprogrammed, they can toss off. :D
 
What exactly is the appeal of a diesel small car to begin with? I can see the value on a heavy duty truck, but is it necessary for a car?

Driving from Lafayette (2 hours west of New Orleans) to Orlando [690 miles] on 1 tank of fuel for one; or when I visit family in DC [1100 miles], stopping only once to fill up.

Yep great mileage for me also. Drove from London to Euro Disney starting with a full tank (est mileage 600 miles to empty) stayed about 6 miles outside the park and drove back and forwards each day for 4 days before needing to fill up then drive back and had just under a quarter of a tank.

No dealer servicing for you then. After getting my letter anything below 2ltr will require mechanical work and the dealer has to perform the work if the car is in its workshop.

That's not hard. Plenty of competent VW indies out there who do better work than most dealers!
