Who still makes reliable engines?
Tesla.

Toyota. Although some of their diesels are having issues.
Crossing fingers the engine in my Peugeot 308 (the 1.6 turbo 270 bhp version) is going well so far. 50,000 Kay's isn't a huge amount though, time will tell. It seems to have had all the prince Voodoo ironed out.

VAG have traded on the reliability card for years. IMO.
Engine wise, we are in a time of trying to build a lighter, more efficient quieter engine. That lasts as long as the warranty.

Basically, what we have established here, and what the trade has known for decades, is that VAG engines are absolutely shit. Toss them on the pile with JLR, Peugeot, BMW, etc.
Who still makes reliable engines? The Japanese? (excluding Mazda rotaries). The Americans?
