The Volkswagen Group’s latest proposal to fix its emissions-cheating V6 turbo-diesel engines has been rejected by California’s chief air quality regulator.

Good find. This was also reported on Landline this week.

Anyways some interesting discussions I had today was that rumour has it that all the diesel cars that have been pulled for sale in Australia actually do meet the emissions requirements and now ACCC is in real trouble as they have effectively forced VWA to lose $millions in business and have cars pulled from sale for 9 months.
So there is no fix required here in Australia because the cars already meet the requirements and some heads are no doubt going to roll unless it all gets hushed up and swept under the carpet. Plus a big expenses and damages bill gets paid.
Anyway that's the rumour. Sorry if I'm repeating old news which has already been discussed but I'm not going to trawl through 1300+ posts of diesel bashing and frustrated diesel owners.
I wonder if Maurice Blackburn will be calling for a class action of VW diesel owners against the ACCC/Commonwealth government then?
