That's super interesting, and I think it's actually kind of smart. They probably figured going after NOx in diesels is a lost cause, so might as well try to just regulate PM.

I did do a smog for my gas car in Reno and it was just plug into OBDII port, check for emissions monitors, none of the "visual inspection" they do in California, and it only cost 20 dollars. The smog guy seemed to be telling me you could pass with a modified tune when I asked him.
