But what was he doing in the diesel probe and how did he get in there?

Frankfurt am Main (AFP) - Audi chief executive Rupert Stadler was arrested Monday in connection with parent company Volkswagen's "dieselgate" emissions cheating scandal, with prosecutors saying they feared he might try to suppress evidence.

Wait, he was arrested and jailed because prosecutors were worried that he "might" do something wrong? Wow.

One of the most stupid things is to measure exhaust at idle. This stupid method INCREASED POLLUTION.

IF you really want to reduce pollution you measure pollutants per mile.

VW and Audi are on target but not politically correct.

A point of Note: The emissions from that Audi are still less than from my totally compliant Dodge Ram Truck. Back in the sixties engines were very dirty and the rules to clean them up made a lot of sense and were good. The rules have become so stringent today it has reached the point of insanity. Today in the Western World we breath the cleanest air in centuries.

I think these German auto-bosses are getting shafted.

They set a goal that can’t be met. These guys are getting hammered for finding creative ways to meet that goal.

How many US auto chiefs are under the microscope? How many Japanese?

Several months ago, I received a recall notice on my 2006 Mercedes diesel Sprinter to make soft ware revisions pertaining to emissions control

It is in the shop now for routine maintenance and it will be taken care of. I was advised that there are no problems reported with the changes

Criminal charges for violating regulations not even passed into law by any body of government with the power to do so.
