Audi Chief Executive Rupert Stadler will again be questioned by U.S. law firm Jones Day on a reported discovery of a new cheat software device at the luxury car brand, two people familiar with the matter said. Germany's Bild am Sonntag reported a week ago that a U.S. regulator had earlier this year found a software in an automatic transmission Audi capable of reducing carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) by detecting whether a car's steering wheel was turned as it would be when driving on a road. Jones Day, commissioned by the supervisory boards of VW and Audi to investigate the diesel emissions scandal, found no evidence against Stadler when it questioned the CEO in September about when he found out about the use of the software which triggered the scandal 14 months ago.
