Nothing is set in stone yet, but 2009-2012 3.0 TDI's will supposedly be bought back for clean retail as of November 2015 + taxes + $720. That is about 20,000 vehicles. This is part of an agreement that has been heard in court and made public. For me that is about $30K +- depending on how many more miles I put on my 2012 Touareg. The buy-backs should begin in a few months if it follows the same pattern as the 2.0 TDI's. The 2013+ 3.0 TDI's will get a fix. There is talk of "additional significant compensation", but the details of that won't be hashed out until at least Jan 31st. Rumor is about $12K.
This is obviously great news for us financially, but I'm having a very hard time finding a suitable replacement. Hate to see it go as it is the perfect light tow vehicle and all-around great SUV in just about every way. It's very sad to see how badly VW messed up here because it really reduced the availability of new TDI's in various brands.
