I don't exactly have much in the way of expendable income at the moment, plus certain yosposters were planning on buying it for me again after I buy a new one so I'm just letting it sit for a while

IOwnCalculus posted:I suspect there's probably a rule written to exclude any test-only behaviors, whether on every car as-produced or on specially built cars sent to the EPA, otherwise I'd agree with you. Especially when VW has not tried to refute this at all. Late to the party, but skip-shift is a straw-man here. Skip-shift games the gas mileage, and was deemed allowable as is the auto stop/start systems. The biggest problem for VW is they exceed the pollution standards in normal operation outside of the special test mode. Which is a really big deal, if they find the EU models have the same trick. We may just be watching VW implode. Goober Peas fucked around with this message at 23:41 on Sep 21, 2015 |

The biggest problem for VW is they exceed the pollution standards in normal operation outside of the special test mode. Which is a really big deal, if they find the EU models have the same trick. We may just be watching VW implode. Continuing this, Jalopnik / Consumer Reports seems to indicate that the programming kicked in as part of the same mode that lets them test on a two-wheel dyno. So unlike skip-shift, the trigger that would allow this (enable dyno mode so the car doesn't freak out seeing zeros on the rear wheel speed sensors) would never be seen in any actual driving. That's a remarkably simple trigger, and one that the EPA can prevent from ever working again by doing all tests going forward on four-wheel dynos.

I really hope they had some kind of inside source, and did it JUST to gently caress with him. Also, cleaning up pounds of oil soaked kitty litter loving sucks. I can't wait until this god drat car is moving again. 3-4 paychecks, hopefully...

But diesel has one hell of a loving hurdle to get over now. Though it would be nice to get rid of the bro mobiles that never see a trailer behind them in their life.

Apparently I took some good shots when I went to watch the dragboat races this past weekend. Got quite a few friend requests from some of the people who were racing and the photos are getting shared around like crazy. Feels good, finally starting to feel like I might be a proper semi-pro photographer

Tonight I went on an awesome date, with an awesome chick I've never met before, and we just drank beers and talked for like three hours and it was awesome.  Also, I will probably be hungover all day tomorrow. Worth it.

I think the record shop I found it at might have another copy. If I find it its yours for whatever it cost (think it was $10) plus shipping if you're serious.
