Audi’s extending an olive branch to owners of the A3 2.0-liter TDI diesel models that were affected by dieselgate. These owners will receive two US$500 pre-paid gift cards and free roadside assistance for three years. The first pre-paid card can be spent anywhere you choose, while the second one is for in-dealership spending. It’s rather similar to the scheme VW has going. You need to register online with your vehicle’s VIN number, your driver’s license, and proof of ownership by April 30, 2016. Once registered, you should get the package within four weeks.

Unfortunately, those using the larger 3.0-liter TDI diesel engines are part of the program. Audi says they are working on a software repair for the larger diesel models, which the company estimates will cost it “mid-double-digit millions of euros.”
