    I agreed 100% until this bit.

    OP has a turbo small engines diesel, what do Toyota have?

    How many different million car recalls did Toyota / honda have?

    Toyota / honda are aiming for the exact same high mpg figures as their rivals which are only attainable with hugely complex electrical wizardry

    You missed my point - I specifically referred to their petrol engines (not turbo charged).

    As regards Toyota's and Honda's recalls - at least they do recall them when they find a design fault. If only the Germans would do the same...

    Just to give you one example - some of those TSI engines are notorious for their oil consumption - and VAG won't replace the engine unless the oil consumption exceeds 1 litre for every 800 miles. Anything under that, VAG state is "normal".

    I've seen a clutch entirely torched at 600km, not warranty. At 50k km it is entirely unreasonable of a consumer to expect a warranty replacement on a clutch.

    Every clutch is different, your driving style needs to adjust accordingly. You cannot drive any 2 cars the same any more than you can expect a Samsung Galaxy and an iPhone 5 to have all the settings in the same place.
