apias:
  • These engines didn't use a urea injection system, they were claimed to not require it, saving VW ~$430/car and customers ongoing maintenance costs.
  • With the "defeat device" enabled -- i.e., with emission controls full on -- they test legal without requiring urea injection.
  • With the "defeat device" disabled -- i.e., with emission controls full off -- they run with emissions at up to 40 times the legal level.
  • They only get the advertised performance and fuel economy with the emission controls full off.

Do you mean the other way around, Apias?
