Volkswagen is the eleven million diesel cars equipped with software for emission tests can be manipulated with the right programs in order to meet emissions legislation. That would be the new CEO Matthias Mueller have announced yesterday at a private meeting for about one thousand top executives at its headquarters in Wolfsburg, writes The Wall Street Journal.

The German group has “vast plan” to replace prepared which will be submitted to the German regulators. These customers would be notified within a few days. The cost of this intervention by analysts at $ 6.5 billion (approximately 5.7 billion) estimated.

The company is under fire after ten days ago showed that the car is equipped with software that emission measurements knowingly commits fraud. Volkswagen has given the German transport authority KBA until October 7 to submit a plan to the exhaust emissions of truth again.

Fewer cars hit

The new CEO reported on the meeting also that fewer cars are involved in diesel scandal than eleven million which the company made known earlier, because not all cars the engineered software would have also been activated. In total there is tampered with the software in 5 million Volkswagens, 1.8 million Volkswagen commercial vehicles, 2.1 million Audi’s 1.2 million Skoda and one million other types of vehicles (including Seat). What proportion of them are actually the fraudulent software was running, is unknown.

Software update ‘other cars produce – Automation Guide

: Size the image correctly ?? ->

The engine of 11 million diesel engines of the Volkswagen Group, including 160,000 in the Netherlands, must be reprogrammed. The software update may affect the performance or consumption of the car, but according to experts still depends on many factors

.

So it is questionable whether the fraudulent software that made cars in US greenhouse trials cleaner look than they are, even in European testing has started. VW will there have to clarify. In the United States, namely tested differently than here, says technical expert Menno Neeteson from the ANWB.

The program in question is, according to VW have been installed in European vehicles. “But if the software has not been active here, it can not be deleted safely, ” says Neeteson. That could even go up if the software in Europe test results has affected, but the emission of harmful gases even without skulduggery within standards would have remained.

Software determines the engine performance

If it appears that the car’s software tampering or needed robust to meet European environmental standards, will also be deeper intervention in the operation of the engine. This can be detrimental to performance, such as the power and torque (pulling power) the motor delivers. Also, fuel consumption may go up.

How bad is it varies greatly depending on model. The engines with a displacement of 2 liters bidding Neeteson still some leeway, but owners of a car with an engine of 1.2 liters may be trademarks or according to him. “The performance of those engines are equally at now, and you suddenly have a completely different car. “

Or, car owners may be required to customize their engine, according to the car connoisseur is unclear. “There, look at our lawyers ”

Milieudefensie wants software diesel cars make Hacking – A look at news

Tuesday, 29. September 2015 – 13:47 Update: 29-09-2015 21:17

Amsterdam

Friends of the Earth wants the software that drives the engine of cars, is accessible. Volkswagen made sure with the help of software that cars know when they are officially tested. Only then emissions were low. Without the source code, it is impossible in the future as shoddy as to prevent Volkswagen.

‘The diesel scandal shows that the EU naive and has been too lax in controlling the automotive industry. We need realistic emission tests and access to the source code of the software that controls the engine. ” said Friends of the Earth campaigner traffic Ivo Stumpe. “The House should take this as a hard requirement to give the EU.”
Milieudefensie will not wait for new rules. “We’re trying to take a group of hackers and techies themselves to gain access to the software of a few suspicious marks. This is necessary to get the true extent of the scandal surfaced and prevent the new tests will lead to fraud and skulduggery. “

BCT manufacturers receive funding for new software – TaxiPro.nl

Taxi Trip computer manufacturers each receive up to 165,000 euros grant to develop the new BCT software and roll out. The award of the grant is conditional on the development and certification of the software before April 1, 2016 has been realized. From July 1, 2016 must have all BCT’s about software according to the new specifications so that the ILT devices can fully read and can use the data for enforcement.

The subsidy amounts per manufacturer 50,000 as the basic amount. In addition, 40% of the cost of developing the software. And 15,000 euro for the certification of the software update in the test houses. Reported Wilma Mansveld State Secretary of Infrastructure and the Environment in the Government Gazette.

State aid

With a maximum limit of 165,000 euros to establish there is no State aid, reports Mansveld. This threshold is namely 200,000. When the BCT developers, however, have used grant for the development of the BCT, for example from innovation jars, then it will be deducted from the grant ceiling.

The software update should eliminate scope for interpretation and teething so the ILT devices can be used for enforcement. Also, it will soon be possible to update the air, so taxis are not for every update back to having an RDW station. That fact brings high costs with it. Prerequisite for this is that a BCT includes a modem, the update can now be downloaded.

Contribution taxi industry

Since not all development costs are paid by IenM, producers will choose a contribution of asking the taxi entrepreneurs. “For carriers which BCT software contracts have ended, there are costs associated with the update,” explains director Rob Doodkorte of neone increasing. “The level of reimbursement can not say anything yet.”

get

Manufacturers neone (formerly Taxitronic) expects the deadline of April 1. Like manufacturer Cabman, who expects the software update to go out as early as January 2016 roles. Also Quipment, which now has under the new approval again, starts with the development of the new software.

“The date April 1, 2016 should be feasible,” says director Olof Dieckhaus. “We’re just not all in their own hands. We also have to deal with external factors, such as certification of the software by test houses. We are pleased with the grant, but it is not enough for development. So even in our taxi operators will have to contribute to the costs. “

Cost

The cost for the taxi industry to perform the update are estimated by IenM up to 100 euro per vehicle. Before that, however, no funding made available. The jar of a few million which is left because fewer purchase grants are provided on a BCT than budgeted is not addressed. “The subsidy per BCT would be too low in relation with the overhead and administrative costs that would be associated with the application,” says Mansveld.

A few months reported back Mansveld to the House that the Environment and Transport Inspectorate until July 1, 2016 will not hand out fines for not having a board computer Taxi. Although the legal requirement still applies, taxi operators receive only a warning. If all is well have the whole taxi industry from July 1, 2016 on a BCT that meets the new specifications, so that enforcement can be started.

Bosch VW already warned in 2007 for manipulation software – RTL Z

Volkswagen was eight years ago warned about the banned manipulation software. That was done by Bosch, the maker of the software. In 2011 warned VW’s own engineers also further.

This writes the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ). Researchers came the warning on the track at an exploration of documents at Volkswagen.

Bosch supplies the software to VW, but that was only for testing purposes and not for use in cars go on the road. Bosch would have warned Volkswagen that use in ordinary cars for sale are intended in conflict with the law

When asked how Volkswagen responded to the warnings of Bosch replied according to Bild am Sonntag:. ” in the context of relations with Volkswagen we have an obligation of confidentiality ”.

FAZ refers to the message that the employees warned four years ago to sources within the supervisory board. The commissioners would have only received notice of the warning. It is not clear why the warning had no consequences and who was aware of.

Bosch Volkswagen warned in 2007 that software ‘illegal’ was – Gazet van Antwerpen

The German company Bosch would have made the conscious software to Volkswagen in 2007 that the carmaker could manipulate its emissions. Bosch warned then that the software might be intended only for internal testing and not for driving on the road.

         

Volkswagen -who installed the software detects that the vehicle travels in a test environment and then expelling less harmful substances in 11 million diesel cars. These cars were in reality so much more polluting than on paper.

The German newspaper Bild says it has “an explosive document. Therein Bosch warns his client from Wolfsburg that the installation of the software in cars is ‘illegal’. Bosch wanted against Bild will not respond and referred to the confidentiality clause it has with its customers.

October 7

The pressure Volkswagen meanwhile increases. According to Bild, the German transport authority KBA has asked the legal department of VW to submit no later than October 7 ‘binding measures and a time plan, and or by when the vehicles without the manipulative software will comply with environmental legislation. If VW does not comply with the request, threatening the cars in question not to be sold.

EU knew in 2013 of software that may affect emissions test – Financieele Dagblad (Registration)

Back in 2013 noted EU officials to contain diesel cars software that may affect emission testing. The Financial Times reported Friday. In England it was already known in October 2014 that the emission tests are flawed.

In 2013 asked officials from the Joint Research Commission in a report unequivocally that tests to determine the emissions of diesel cars ‘problematic’ because its software can be used which may affect the emissions during testing. But these findings then led to no new rules or new ways of testing, although the committee so it had recommended.

Deadly gas

In October 2014 the UK Department of Transport received a report from the International Council on Clean Transportation. The ICCT had favored fifteen diesel cars. Fourteen of them produced an average of more than seven times the maximum allowable emission of the deadly gas. A car produced even twenty-five times more than was allowed.

This week arrived in the US revealed that Volkswagen environmental testing had manipulated software that could determine that there was judged that the emission was immediately diminished. Once the car just drove on the way the system was transferred to a viezere but for motorists attractive mode.

Manufacturers have received a letter about it on today. Last week it was announced that Volkswagen equipment has built 11 million diesel cars to suggest that they emit fewer smog than was actually the case. The government is wondering whether there are more manufacturers use this or a similar technique, writes New York Times.
