Independent tester hired by third-party that wanted tougher standards.
They wanted to use VW as an example of what can be done with clean
diesel so as to force new rules on other car manufacturers.
Big surprise. :-)

Like Charles said, there two sides, I'm keep wondering why it was done
I'm a former TDI owner (not the generation in question). Loved the car. Loved
the engine. So, after investing a billion or so dollars in a new engine design
VW finds it can either pass the emissions tests or achieve high (target) fuel
mileage but not both. What do you do? This was a really cleaver solution, but I
wonder how they got caught. VM has screwed the pooch as they are now back to
the original problem without solution.
