On 29 September 2015, Volkswagen announced plans to refit up to 11 million affected vehicles, fitted with Volkswagen's EA 189 diesel engines, including 5 million at Volkswagen brand, 2.1 million at Audi, 1.2 million at Škoda and 1.8 million light commercial vehicles. SEAT said that 700,000 of its diesel models were affected. In Europe alone, a total of 8 million vehicles are affected.[144] In Germany, 2.8 million vehicles will have to be recalled, followed by the UK, with 1.2 million. In France, 984,064 vehicles were affected, in Austria around 360,000, while in the Czech Republic 148,000 vehicles were involved (of which 101,000 were Škodas). In Portugal, Volkswagen said it had sold 94,400 vehicles with the software.[145][146] The repair may not require a formal recall; in the UK, for example, the company will simply offer to repair the cars free of charge; a recall is required only "when a defect is identified that... could result in serious injury". As the rules violation involved enabling emission controls during testing, but turning it off under normal conditions to improve performance or fuel mileage, it has been speculated that the software update might make cars perform less efficiently and impair fuel economy; according to VW, however, its proposed solutions will be designed to achieve legal EU emissions compliance without impairing engine performance or consumption.[147]

In September 2015, Volkswagen's Belgian importer, D'Ieteren, announced that it would offer free engine upgrades to 800 customers who had ordered a vehicle with a diesel engine which was likely to have been fitted with illegal software.[176][177]
On 28 June 2016, Volkswagen agreed to pay $15.3 billion[342] to settle the various public and private civil actions in the United States, the largest settlement ever of an automobile-related consumer class action in United States history.[343] On 25 October 2016, a U.S. federal judge approved the settlement.[344] Up to $10 billion will be paid to 475,000 Volkswagen or Audi owners whose cars are equipped with 2.0-litre diesel engines. Owners can also opt to have their car repaired free of charge or can sell it back to the company, who will pay back its estimated value from before the scandal began. Leases can also be terminated without incurring penalty charges. Independent of which options are selected, owners will still receive compensation ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 per affected car. Additionally, should they choose to decline the offer, they are free to pursue independent legal action against the firm.[345] The settlement also includes $2.7 billion for environmental mitigation, $2 billion to promote zero-emissions vehicles and $603 million for claims by 44 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.[346] Volkswagen agreed not to resell or export any vehicles it repurchases unless an approved emission repair has been completed.[342] As of 28 June 2016[update], no practical engineering solutions that would bring the vehicles into compliance with emission standards had been publicly identified.[342] The consumer settlement will resolve all claims by participating consumers against Volkswagen and all its associates, except for any potential claims against Robert Bosch GmbH.[342] Bosch supplied two exhaust treatment components and engine control software.[166] In the case of 3.0-litre V6 TDI engines, Volkswagen suggested it can provide an uncomplicated fix that will bring the vehicles into compliance without adversely affecting performance, a move that the company hopes will avoid an expensive buyback of these cars.[347]
KnowBe4 released Domain Doppelgänger in September of 2018. This free tool identifies the look-alike domains associated with your corporate domain. These are a dangerous vector for phishing and other social engineering attacks, so you want to know if any potentially harmful domains can spoof your domain.
We also work on a vast amount of light duty diesel engines, Ford (Power Strokes) G.M. (Duramax), Dodge (Cummings) and International (466 etc.). If you have more information on these motors, feel free to shoot me an email for what you have to offer. My two Diesel Techs are both very knowledgeable, but I like to be on top of my game at all times. We also work on gas engines, Ford, G.M. & Dodge.
Can also try free alternatives for obd software, for your laptop. Like EasyOBD which is a obd2 software for pc. Lets you turn your laptop or desktop PC into a sophisticated automotive diagnostics system.
