But it is clear they chose to not include the AdBlue system with those cars that that failed the real world test.

But you'd need to see the actual memo *and* understand the subtleties of the German language know whether it was a serious warning or a "nudge, nudge - wink, wink"!

It's clearly an absolutely classic protect Bosch's arse memo.

Well the Bavarians are - so that'll cover BMW fer sure. They'll be drinking out of them funny tankards with the hinged lids too, in between bites of Bratwurst.

But not Bosch.

How unspeakable.

Sam Thatch put finger to keyboard:
