Citroën were the first to make diesel filters standard. And my C15 had the HDi engine with diesel filters. And unlike others, they did not cheat and were not part of the Diesel scandal.

Also, I survived.

And when it comes to security features, more important than not having side airbags would have been not to combine smoking weed and fellatio while doing 160.

I am not saying that any of this would be a good idea if keeping your life is a priority.

But even with maniacs like myself on the road, Germany has deaths from fatal car crashes of 3-4 per 100,000, while the US has 12-13.

But again, I am not a lawyer, not a doctor, and this is not health advise, just a true story of what I did 25 years ago that may or may not entertain readers.

Modern Diesel Engines have gotten so much better in every single area.

Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py37TT6PxW4 to see just how common cheating was. Also have a look at the graph at 17:47 .

"From 2009."

The concept of "software in motors" did not exist in the age of the C15.

This is just a lie you just made up.

Please: Chill. All good. This is just light entertainment.

Still: Under the definitions I work with, an ECU is Hardware. Rule of thumb: If it does not run Doom, it's probably hardware :)

What a silly definition.
