    Volkswagen Emissions Investigation Zeroes In on Two Engineers (WSJ - may be a registration only link).

    "Two top Volkswagen engineers who found they couldn’t deliver as promised a clean diesel engine for the U.S. market are at the center of a company probe into the installation of engine software designed to fool regulators, according to people familiar with the matter."
