Once an Engine and Cat has a few miles on it, I could imagine it might be difficult for it to pass emissions with the requirement it pass at manufacturers spec.
May be some early rebuilds or scrapings as a result of this legislation.

There'd be nearly no early EA888 engines VW's left! (Oil consumption issues)

I see plenty of late model DPF equipped diesels around here puffing smoke too... Though I wonder if they've had a DPF delete!

- has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
