VW has been ordered to halt sales of the TDI.

They purposely cheated on a fake device to pass your emission test. What I quickly heard what happened.

Exactly. I have owned TDIs for the past 15 years. I just purchased one last month. I have truly enjoyed their diesels, both driving experience and the range between fill ups.
I can't express how disappointed I am with the VW company I am right now.

The German gov. is digging in on the investigation and doesn't look good.
