    I used to use JDpower for reliability ratings etc for car makes while I was in Canada.

    It's handy to check on models you aren't familiar with.
    All the models are US/Canada though, so there may be big differences between the stats for the European models.
    Any equivalent here?

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    JD power has nothing to do with reliability ratings!

    It's a customer satisfaction survey, so the results are purely subjective

    You can check out the Reliability Index compiled by Warranty Direct

    Well it's reliability ratings from consumers then. Still I would say it has it's merits.

    No, it's a satisfaction rating. Satisfaction is heavily based on the price paid for a product. A good example of this is how happy people are with a Skoda Octavia versus a VW Golf. They're basically the same product with the same common flaws but the Octavia regularly tops the Top Gear customer satisfaction survey while the golf is nearer to the bottomTo answer your original question, the German version of the AA (called ADAC I think but I'm not 100%) have a reliability index.

    Yes....JDpower.:)

    They do the same think for the uk/irish market too.
