Diesel Emissions Claims faq's
Did 'Dieselgate' affect my car?
In the UK, millions of diesel cars may fall under this issue, as dozens of manufacturers fitted defeat devices. If you bought, leased, or owned a diesel vehicle made between 2008 and 2022, you could be eligible to join the claim.
What manufactures are effected?
Currently, claims are being accepted for BMW, Ford, Jaguar, and Land Rover vehicles, with more manufacturers expected to be added in 2025.
What is the diesel emissions claim about?
Our panel of solicitors represents UK residents whose vehicles included defeat devices during the ‘Dieselgate’ scandal. Manufacturers installed these devices to cheat emissions tests by displaying lower emissions than the vehicles actually produced. Consequently, the vehicles released harmful NOx gases into the air, posing serious risks to public health. This behaviour is entirely unacceptable. Moreover, many drivers may have also suffered financial losses, making them eligible to pursue diesel emissions claims against the responsible manufacturers.

What happens if I lose my diesel claim?
If your emissions claim doesn’t succeed, you won’t pay anything. After all, we operate on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis.
Why should I make a claim?
Your car manufacturer misled you about the emission of a harmful pollutant, NOx. As a result, we must hold car manufacturers accountable and show them that profits cannot come before public health and the environment. Depending on the specifics of your case, you could also claim compensation worth thousands of pounds.
What if my car is fixed by the manufacturer?
This won’t affect your claim. In fact, many people who received this ‘fix’ later reported that their vehicle performed worse and consumed more fuel. So, when you submit your claim through the online form, please tell us if your car went through a recall and received the fix.
