Re: Volkswagen is going to spend up big getting rid of its troublesome cheatware
"Weird, I've never really had problems with turbo diesels, and I have been driving them from the time VAG brought out the first turbo diesel."
Mine wasn't VAG.
The power band must have been all of 500rpm wide and on acceleration away from the lights the traffic behind vanished. Behind a black cloud.
Being a company car I handed it in when I retired & bought a 2nd hand petrol-driven Sierra with a suspiciously exact 60,000 on the clock. It was a major improvement.
