    Report away, it doesn't make you any less stupid, illiterate or a sockpuppet Besides you need to be SY01 suffering mortal outrage over having the truth shoved in his face to get up a decent head of steam.

        That cheating emissions stuff most certainly increased mpg because they were probably reducing boost, so the engine wasn't producing as much bhp as claimed.

        That's fraud - obtaining money by deception, many people will go to jail for it.

          I think you will find there needs to be a victim or someone who has lost something as a result of it. I hardly think standing up in court and whining that the BHP in your car has caused you any harm is going to land anyone in trouble.
          Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone

              And how mods respond to it. This is General. All hope abandon ye who enter here. Seriously. So long as things are kept within the bounds of reasonable decency, anything goes. TykeMerc is, however, repeatedly testing those boundaries.

              There is no evidence that diseasex is a sockie. Your obsession and paranoia is getting very dull.
              Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                  By faking emissions they've most certainly achieved far better mpg too - that's fraud because they made their product look better than others and charged premium for it.

                      I get just under 50mpg in my Beemer which is accurate with the fuel/distance put in when manually calculated.
