One thought of mine just popped in my head....perhaps VW has a simple solution that they did not want to do such as reducing performance in order to meet standards and can implement that easily if caught.
Seem like some sort of reflash or reprogram is the solution.
Basically in contradiction to my first stated thought, if it were easy they would have already done it.

Obviously if they pass emissions with a specific ecu programming it is possible. It is likely at the cost of significant power and fuel mileage. Easy solution but then I imagine it comes down to consumer laws, where the product no longer functions as advertised. There's no real easy way out of it. I hope people start dumping them. Id be happy to have a switchable custom ecu flash between the nerfed version and a tune.
