It would seem that some of the requirements for less pollution spurred on by Climate Change are having unforeseen consequences.

and the cost can be more than the vehicle is worth if it is aged.

the hoax continues. You diesel drivers have stolen my future. How dare you?

A woman driving a VW with this problem was killed a couple of years ago. VW's shonky practices have been well aired in the past. What does it have to do with climate change?

Is Mise. Here you are whinging about this stuff, and still blind to the problem the ABC actually is to society in general.
Seems to me you miss the picture here, as evinced by using them as a reference to a problem they were happy to support in the first instance.

The next major issue our very trustworthy-not ABC will back out of, is the calimity of gay rights and gender confusion.
That one will be more catastrophic than a couple of cars breaking down on the highway.

"What does it have to do with climate change?"

Maybe Is Mise sees a correlation between 'climate change' and emission standards.

Dear Is Mise,

You wrote;

What? Bulldust. Diesel emission standards have nothing to do with the fight against Climate Change but rather they are an effort to tackle the very real issue of diesel pollutants, some of which have been shown to be highly carcinogenic.

Part of the deal with the Democrats over the GST was to increase the standard for low sulfur diesel which is why cracker plants worth hundreds of millions of dollars were installed at our refineries. The standards are not as high as Europe and as a consequence our imported cars have older engines to cope with our dirtier fuels.

So I will have you stop making things up.
