This will do nothing. It does not represent a change in law. The EPA is just rebutting the industry argument that new legislation that might require manufacturers to release their diagnostic tools could run afoul of existing EPA policy.

The letter clarifies that the agency interpretation of the statute is that it does not prohibit owner repairs in any way, except that owners of course can ot defeat any emissions mechanism.

It's the right policy position. I hope there is some testing and enforcement for some of that giant farm equipment.
