Top 10 least reliable marques (out of 100)
Odd how Audi are right up there but the Spanish versions (Seat) and budget versions (VW) are not Vorsprung durch ****up |
Is there a 'most reliable' table for comparison? Expecting to see S Korean and Japanese (Honda?) well up there :popcorn:
|
I had an Audi A4 wasent that impressed
interesting a look at what car and JD Piwer reliability surveys |
I think simple would be up there Rog, maybe not hybrids
My e had an issue today.. flat batt in the remote. It's a cool little feature in that it has a pop out key which is then used to crack open the case CR2032 and done for 2 years The flat 12v being the only proper issue so far in 13k and 23 months |

That's interesting. I have only changed the battery in my S remote once in 21 years - I have the OEM Honda remote, and not the Arnold Palmer... Is Honda beginning to slack?
Key never goes in car and they constantly communicate as a result apparently I hate keyless unlock as I often have the key in my pocket. It's twatty shyte. Manual says 2yrs and it was very close, think this car was 08/20 reg |

https://www.warrantywise.co.uk/blog/...kes-and-models https://www.warrantywise.co.uk/blog/...kes-and-models It doesn't tie in with the Express report, but the indx is not great, as it combines repair cost with number of claims, so isn't really a measure of reliabilty. Number of claims/Number of policies issued would be better. This is really interesting: https://www.warrantywise.co.uk/blog/...air-bills-2017 The bill for my Honda warranty claim was twice the cost of any of these... |

Mine were doggie wagons after I had to move the SC Mugen wagon on. Quite unexpected they are there, never gave a moments problem. Yes I felt your pain on the Honda warranty claim. Atypical for Honda. But an element of the Honda UK dickheads in there? |
Mate of mine text me today, asking me to take a look at his 21 reg Q3 Black TFSI
Plugged in my OBD Eleven specifically for VAG cars.. 9 faults it had... 9!! A massive array of sensor faults - this from twatting a particularly large sleeping policeman too fast by Costco. Totally upset the entire steering angle sensor, wheel sensors, TPMS, radar sensor, the lot. That's the real reason for the surveys... |

Putting my 2002 S2 back on the road early next week as the 99 one has a few brake pipes overdue for replacement. Will take it to autosport in mid Jan, must remove the cat before I go near Brum :D |
