But since 2015 is still being produced (unlike what happened with VW), it should mean something else. Like they switched a part or feature that require different supplier who just backed out and told them no more parts for you.

from what I understood from the dealer, even the 2015's will stop after all the allocations of 2016 that were ordered to date, would be produced under 2015 tag.
They just managed to get the last line for those who had already placed their orders for a 2016, to revert back to 2015 order guide. and some people like me, just canceled it.
Makes me wonder, they might have had different plans for 2016, which would have not been compliant anymore with recent issues arising, so they've decided to double check everything!
regardless of all the speculations, I think strategically, it is not time to buy a diesel anymore. Even if this think gets resolved in a month, I still think it is risky and it could go either way!
