My point was that despite particle filters the pollution under full load is still visible – it’s very fine soot that’s getting through the filter. I find it hard to believe a T6 on plates indicating it was weeks old had already been chipped or whatever; people here are wary of junking the EGR and remapping as there’s a new emissions test from 1/1/2017 (unless it gets delayed which wouldn’t surprise me as it will put about a third of diesels off the road).

Hmm doubt that’s always the case. Some cars might’ve had them deleted or something, but I definitely see far less brown soot clouds when pulling away than I used to.
The fine haze under full load, perhaps – but it’s better than loads of black smoke I suppose.
Fixed, or tightened up, or clarified. Or completely torn up and (shortly) to be completely redone. Mostly, yes.
Of course not. No one in this is neutral. Everyone is either trying to enforce the regulations, work round them as best they can or ensure they get funding next year.

I wouldn’t rely on the SMMT, or lobbying by Greenpeace, but I would have more faith in an independent report.
