I was wondering about this . Doesn't VW own Porsche and Audi?

[Scrumhalf]

Yep. Looks like the rot runs a lot deeper than we thought. I wonder what other corners they cut.

And lambo and about 10 others..

I never had any doubt about it. I knew it effected the audi's also. They are the same diesel tech.

To bad my lease is not up yet. I'd definitely be getting another Audi or a VW. I bet there are some deals to have right now. :grin:

The End of Volkswagen?

You environment-destroying POS! :D

Fuck yeah! If I had my way I'd run straight pipes from the engine. :thumup:

This would be my car coming down the street if we didn't have all the emission laws. :rofl:

You can't fuch the environment without some good lube. :rofl: :rofl:

VW has said a total of 11m diesel engines are involved in the emission's scandal.
Broken down brand-by-brand they are:
VW - 5m
Audi - 2.1m
Skoda - 1.2m
Seat - 700,000
Vans - 1.8m

This is going to get a lot worse for VW. Apart from the cost of fixing the problem, and dealing with the owners who want VW to buy their cars back, I can see a) class action lawsuits from the owners b) lawsuits from governments who have handed out subsidies for buying ostensibly clean engined cars, c) lawsuits from government agencies responsible for environmental cleanliness and safety d) class action lawsuits from people whose health may have been affected, etc. and last but not least e) class action lawsuits from investors who had their holdings in VW drop in value by half.

I hope VW has deep pockets because they are going to be bled dry before this is over.
