VAG might be on the hook for over $1billion and recall 500,000 vehicles. A billion is probably reasonable given that over the road diesel engine manufacturers did something similar a few years ago and cost them hundreds of millions.
It was a bold, desperate move. Maybe VW wanted to save money by reducing maintenance costs related to clogged intakes and EGR valves, DPF repair, etc.
