VW scandal: the Amarok will be the first correct the software … – TN.com.ar

The Federal Motor Vehicle Office (KBA) of Germany approved the recall plan that proposed for Volkswagen Amarok in Germany, for the case known as “Dieselgate”. The firm had installed a software that falsified data pollutant emissions more than 11 million vehicles when you are performing environmental tests.

By the time the call to review is only in Germany , which will affect about 2.4 million vehicles. If you consider all of Europe, and models of Audi, Skoda and Seat (VW Group brands), the affected amount to 8.5 million.

Volkswagen paid 60 euros per vehicle to workshops that make the software update, a job that lasts half an hour. The case of the 2.0 TDI engine of the Amarok is the simplest. 1.6, however, requires the installation of a “transformer fluid” , which allows better air income and lower consumption.

The KBA is studying the recall of the other models, including the following would be the Passat. Nothing Volkswagen of Argentina did not say what will happen to the affected units are in the country , corresponding to the Amarok, Passat, Vento and Tiguan models, all powered 2.0.
