SQ5 IT'S STILL A DIRTY OLD DIESEL Lol!!!

[45bvtc]

So, just for FUN, please understand it's just for FUN, bu as it's a nice day I decided to do a wee test on this ongoing theme of: "It’s still a dirty old diesel Lol!!!" and Audi have it ALL wrong...

And here's 3-photos for you to ponder:

1) The exhaust pipe outlet - RH side - and my finger 'wipe-test' from our 2010 AUDI TT PETROL TFSi:

2) The exhaust pipe outlet - LH side - and my finger 'wipe-test' from our 2011 AUDI RS3 PETROL TFSi:

3) The exhaust pipe outlet - RH side - and my finger 'wipe-test' from or 2016 AUDI SQ5 Bi-TDi:

Just sayin' and just for FUN but this dirty old diesel sure shows some 'CLEAN' pipes...

Back in 1991, Nigel, I was responsible for compliance to the then new: Council Directive 91/441/EEC of 26 June 1991 amending Directive 70/220/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles. I'd respectfully suggest mayor Khan and a few others take a close look, Nigel, as for sure they don't understand motor vehicle 'emissions' and neither do some here on ASN, however...

91/441/EEC of 26 June 1991 = catalytic converters to be fitted to ALL new cars manufactured 1993 (with a few dispensations) so bye-bye carburettors and hello fuel injection and cats...

I'll be honest, high 90's percent know the word emissions as something crap coming out of the back of a car, in this discussion anyway, but have no real idea what is being emitted.......

Without dialling down & reading every fact & data about this, I personally dont know all this either, but I have some understanding by experience of automotive work & a father who knew everything about cars in his time............

But to coin a "Trump" fake news usually creates hysteria quicker than factual reality.......... Aka chinese whispers

A hospital run in the morning John and when back home I'll post pics of ALL 4-exit pipes...

PS: it's all that AdBlue® compliance to Euro 6 Emission Standards that does it...

This was the inside of the rear silencer on my 2008 3.0 TDI that had over 80K miles on it when I cut it open to remove the baffles. You literally could eat your dinner off it. The DPF's do a very good job of removing particulate emissions. Not so good with Nox.

Dirty old diesel (2016 3.0 V6 Bi-TDi SQ5) - would I 'ever' lie to you guys: this after a typical 15-mile hospital run (that I would not/could not have done faster/quicker in the RS3) earlier today; and after a 45-minute wait 15-miles back home with a couple of stops (post office, etc):

Crazy clean for a "dirty old diesel" or what...

In fairness the DPF will remove a lot of the soot your old diesel rattler makes....

My SQ5 missed the PPF by a year but it’s not an issues as the exhausts are fake...

Yes it surprised me how clean the exhaust tips were on my SQ5, definitely a different story now with the RSQ3.....luckily there is only 1 and I can get my hand inside it
