And there in is the heart of the issue, the fact that identical cars / parts have been recalled overseas, over a year ago now in the case of the diesel injectors, yet VW simply ignored the issue here, and charged people handsomely to replace known faults.

I love the brand, and my dodgy diesel ( thankfully now paid off ), but VW are reaping what they have sown. This will be hurting them, people overseas are watching, and the fallout is yet to reach a peak I reckon.

I just feel for people trying to trade / sell their VW for the next several months, it's going to be flat for a while.
