  • Thank you although I couldn’t find out how to ascertain if my engine is eligible. I believe I can check with the VIN number.
  • Just be very careful what you sign up to.  There have been several threads from people who saw the compo opportunity and rushed into an agreement, and are finding out they may be liable for costs because they want to withdraw.

    It's done via your numberplate.

  • Oh, I am being asked to make sure the engine is eligible to claim.

    Thank you
  • Hi,
    I've obviously been living under a rock. Didn't realise this was a real thing so ignored it as a scam.
    The deadline for my Nissan has passed, but when I click what appears to be a link to 'register interest', nothing happens.
    Can anyone offer any helpful advice please? 
    Thank you.

    Don't waste your time.

    Odds of companies paying out is slim to none. As none of the companies or even VW had any cheat devices fitted. Only in the US was that the case.

    And you're surprised?  

    You should have trained, become qualified and then taken on all the legal work yourself to keep that extra £400.
