  • 2015 and Newer- Look Out !

    Police have raided Opal Headquarters
    Another Diesel Fiddle.
    Expect a recall anytime soon.
    Do not let them touch your car or it will end up as flat as a fart !
    My mates VW was terrible after the work!

    Yeah I went through that already with Audi, and one of the many reasons I got rid, don't let the dealers touch your car, no legal requirement.

    I have posted in another thread, and would imagine they will apply the same nonsense that VW/AUDI did, ruined many thousands of cars, the Americans even had the option to sell car back to VW/AUDI or take and extended warranty, UK a crappy valet kit.

    Don't let them near it, trust me on this one.

              Just to say as I had mentioned I went threw this with my Audi A5, some said they couldn't notice but I can assure you I did and you will if you allow vx to do a cheat device removal on the ecu.

              There is no way they will ever be allowed near my car to implement any software update, was a real ballache once done, you will always get some who will say I cant tell or car is the same but this goes deeper than just a software or ecu map update, most mappers can't change it back. And vx like Audi Vw will never revert it once they have done it.

              Won't be a simple case if you don't like it to go to a mapper and have the map changed, I watched my egr and dpf readings afterwards and was shocking, these parts will fail a lot quicker than norm.

              So if this does get the go ahead count me out. I would advise anyone else the same...... Diesel is dead ......

                  Quote from article:

                  "French-owned Opel had already "voluntarily" refitted 23 000 of 96 000 manipulated cars in total, the KBA added, meaning that an officially-approved refit procedure exists that can quickly be applied to the recalled vehicles."
