It’s quite ironic really. I knew the whole time that they would find out that VW wasn’t the only one. They were just the first to get caught with their pants down.

No. Hell no. That is all.

Supposedly the nitrous oxide in diesel emissions is a known carcinogen, so that’s what all of the fuss is about.

Ugh. Those chrome bars on the higher end models go way too far across the grille. It is tacky as hell! I’m not sure what trims have what grilles, but the grilles with the holes at the end of the chrome bars look so much better than the ones that go all the way across.

Find a mechanic who is able and willing to put the car back to stock parameters (although I really doubt that would be easy to find someone who’s willing to do that), or use third party software to tune it and know an awful lot about ECU’s, or get a performance chip and potentially make it even better than it was

Forgive me for going off subject here, but how often do you change your Kinja username? I’ve seen 3 different ones out of you in the past week! It’s quite amusing, I enjoy it.

I agree. People cheat the system with modified cars all of the time. For the record, I don’t own a TDI and I’ve never modded a car to the extent that I have to bolt stock parts back on it to make it legal for emissions testing, but I definitely don’t blame TDI owners who don’t want their cars messed with. If they

Congratulations! You just said the dumbest thing I’ll hear this week. Military > EPA. Do you enjoy living in a safe country and having freedom? If you do then I would suggest that you watch where you say things like that.

Just get the recall done if you have to, prove you had it done, then reverse the recall. Problem solved. They don’t have to know what happens after you proved you had the recall done.

Yes but the FX did. Which further proves my point that Infiniti’s naming convention is confusing. I also forgot that they even made the EX, which I now realize is what this QX50 actually is.

Why it doesn’t have a 5.o liter V8 in it like it’s supposed to have? Why Infiniti moved to a naming convention that makes no sense at all is beyond me. Idiots. Their old way of naming cars by their displacement worked quite well.

You know what’s crazy is that you could get heated seats on Saabs all the way back in 1972. That’s when they first introduced electronic heated seats. They were the first brand ever to do so. Or so they say.

Whenever I see one of these landing I just can’t help but say in my head in a British accent

I’m sorry, but any company or individual for that matter that can dupe the federal government out of $51 million dollars and give it back to people who paid their hard earned money into a system that perpetually wastes taxpayer’s money is a hero.

What I would do if I had one of these cars is get the fix done to make the feds happy, then immediately after that, turn around and have my favorite mechanic, or myself reverse the recall.

Welp, time for me to start looking for a TDI. Sounds like a buyer’s market is just around the corner.

Cool Nissan. Make the car look really aggressive to disguise the fact that it’s still one of the most boring cars on sale in America today. The thing is though, it will work with the general public and Nissan knows it.

No kidding. I actually used to like Nissan until they started putting CVTs in everything and making their cars ugly. Then Toyota decided they wanted to play too, so they hired a catfish as their head of design.

Uh that’s a Legacy, not an Impreza.

I almost did buy a Saab 9-2x Aero, but the guy wanted $11,500 for it and wasn’t wanting to negotiate. It was in decent shape, but it had 125k (too many miles to be asking $11,500), horribly warped brake rotors, the original clutch, a filthy engine bay, and a stupid exhaust. 9-2x Aeros go for $6500-$9000 or so all day
