TLC on UsedVictoria thread... (ongoing) (2 Viewers)

Gotta love the that thinking eh?

"Let's take a $10k diesel engine, and make it 100% dependant on a 40 dollar strip of rubber. With even a 1% failure rate , just think of all the new cars we'll sell when they go."

I imagine that conversation has been had in german more than once...maybe with failure margins just a smidge higher...

Yeah but "Ze Germans" have the emissions situation figured out. Or do they...

You seen this thread in the diesel forum? HDJ81 Died Buddy just went through the same. Seems his mechanic failed to torque a few things properly (or at all).

There's a diesel section?

Haven't been on there in years. You can only look at so many 3b turbo threads in one lifetime.

It's way easier to fudge a few test numbers than it is to make something actually work, besides, the orange thing will have all those pesky rules gone in no time ( if he lasts that long...)
