And we’re back to the diversion tactics ?
Ford ranga in a vw forum!
Let’s see take a ranga or a rok off road FoMoCo burnt arse or Darse Auto buggered lungs, either way your stuffed
Much more likely to be a ranga as they where number 1 most sold 4x4 last year where was rok ?

Anything short of a Perentie 110, a Unimog or a Troopie, is a "soft-roader"

Chief Justice Rocket has spoken.

Unfortunately the govt and everyone else don’t believe your “verdict” .
Just ignore that actual judges have handed down the totally opposite verdict overseas.

Let’s put this personally, if your surgeon can pass the theoretical test by wearing a set of google glasses with a heads up display to show all the answers, yet in the real world he doesn’t know which end of a scalpel to hold, has the shakes and he has been convicted in several other countries of malpractice as well as killing patients by negligence, you’d still let him operate on you or your kids????

Seriously, don’t you have anything better to do?
...and if not, don’t you see you have a problem?

Perhaps it is us who are insane.. we keep feeding the troll logic and fact expecting a different response.

I actually give everyone kudos for being able to decipher what half of its ramblings are actually trying to say.

I also find interesting is you having a shot at anyone here when in another thread you admitted the last 2 vans where not das auto, rather a 3point and an Iveco. So why are you still here?

I help you with that, "Lets use logic".
....I have Amarok, wife has Tiguan and other family members have VW or Skoda cars.
To answer why my working vehicle is not VW, unfortunately VW AU didn't want to bring 4Motion Carfter to Australia so I had to buy 4x4 Sprinter, simply because RWD only van will not go where a lot of my customers live.

i kinda thought that being a moderator, you are contributing plenty to this place and didn’t have to justify yourself to anyone

[Dutch77]

Two more years.. this is epic.

Also ,Wouldn’t this forum benefit if instead of silencing the ongoing case, it had a sticky where a mod could post all the latest news and possibly attract a large chunk of the 20,000 signed up who could go to one spot for an update, instead of searching numerous sites? More viewers, who will see the watercooled sponsors, but that’s a stupid idea ain’t it

No dude, this is an enthusast forum for enthusiasts, not a place for disgruntled VW owners to vent.

Frantic, this forum might be the best place to air your grievances: Whirlpool Forums

I have avoided posting in this thread for a long time, but now that some time has passed, could anyone report on the results after they had the fix done. I have a 2010 Tiguan and have avoided it so far.

Or you could head on over to VW Australia's Facebook page , I know I got stuck into them mercilessly some years back over a failed auto because some fool in Gemany decided here in Aus that the auto fluid would never decay and the filter inside designed to catch debris would never get blocked . Took me two years but I did get a positive result .Volkswagen - Posts | Facebook

Gldgti and Umai Naa!! Case proven.......... a vw owner asking about recall and potential sponsor customer.(gldgti next time use whole post to quote not cut n paste)

Arcadelt , the only report I’ve seen (which others dispute without a link?)has said it slightly worsens fuel economy . But I’m sure others on here who’ve had it done could give a more detailed review in terms of power. Engine longevity hasn’t been an issue yet, but remains to be seen as that’s the clause in the euro 4/5 that vw claim allowed them to do it in the first place.
Last report was on previous pages; here’s another where we get a mention.
Aussies slow to grab VW's diesel fix

dunno mate, arcadelts signature makes him seem like a bonafide enthusiast whos been avoiding an annoying thread.

I was here in the early days, but gave up probably 1000 posts ago.

Found this one today apparently they have stored all the buyback Dieselgate VWs next to the Pikes Peak Speedway in Colorado love the fact that they don,t want anyone to take aerial photos .


But someone forgot to tell the guys at Google Earth that they did not want the photos shown .

[doc_777]

Hey Sunny,
I saw some pics about this on a discussion board at work. Simply, wow. That’s a car park. There is another one in Victorville CA. Wonder if there are others...

[Sunny43.5]

Yes it seems that Google Earth have updated their aerial images because if you go to Street View it shows the field still covered in grass etc .Yes I bet this is just a small sample of storage areas for various parts of the US , I could not imagine they only use one site . Yep found this one next to the Victorville Airport again street view shows empty lot then its suddenly full of cars when seen from above .
