Thorr159 and I just spent an hour doing a write reply to you and it went POOOF when i hit post.


Please look into Volkswagons Urea "fix"
wired .com has awesome article.

germany did NOT use the US EPA regulated mixture. the rigs were spewing 40x emillions. multiply that by the 11 million cars worldwide.

i am looking for the EPA sniffer maps that helped discover the problem.

Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF; also known as AUS 32 and marketed as AdBlue) is a liquid used to reduce the amount of air pollution created by a diesel engine. Specifically, DEF is an aqueous urea solution made with 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water. DEF is consumed in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) that lowers nitrogen oxides (NO
x) concentration in the diesel exhaust emissions from a diesel engine

Last week, the EPA accused the German automaker of using a "defeat device," an algorithm that detects when the car is being tested by the EPA and changes its performance to meet emissions standards. The rest of the time, the cars produce up to 40 times the legal limit of nitrogen oxides (NOx), the stuff linked to increased rates of asthma and other respiratory problems.


VW's confession that it illegally programed the software in 11 million diesel-powered cars to cheat on emissions tests comes with the sting of betrayal for owners.
