That's not "the bulk", that's all. It is also demonstrably false. Your statement that I quoted previously also did not express or imply "the bulk".
> The vast bulk of the controversy was the EA189, which did not use DEF in any form. This is literally a seconds search away.
My Passat had an EA189 TDI and used DEF. "A seconds search" for EA189 DEF resulted in this link: http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2016/02/vw-reportedly-buying-back-some-dieselgate-cars.html http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2016/02/vw-reportedly-buy...
> Vehicles equipped with updated versions of the EA189 engine that used DEF and SCR systems are considered fixable (this included my car)
So, I ask again, from where did you get the idea that a) only non-DEF-equipped cars were affected and b) that no EA189 engines had a DEF system?
