Default Porsche reporting that the TDI fix is in (though not approved yet)



And Touareg owners get the $1000 good will gesture.

VW will expand goodwill package to larger diesels

Feeling left out???

You know you like what you have when you drop off your Q7 TDI for service, get a brand new gasser as a loaner and can't wait to get your old used TDI back. It's a keeper.

They already rejected the 2.0l fix. Hopefully they don't reject the 3.0l fix.. The only good thing that could come if it is rejected is that there are still new 2015s on dealer lots that will be able to be picked up for a wicked deal once they're eligible to be sold. Especially as the year progresses.

Hopefully we get our $1000 gift card before they approve the fix.... Seems the VW and Porsche guys already received their "good will" payment.
