    Everyone complaining about backlit sliders and buttons, no one saying anything about the horrible reliability? Mk8s have been pretty poorly rated even by VW standards, might as well get an Alfa.

      Do we even have enough data on the reliability yet? I just picked up a 2024 with a 10 year 200,000km warranty.

      The only unreliable thing has been a sensor in the steering wheel, which was largely fixed with the 2023 MY. What else do you consider ‘horrible reliability’?

      Mechanically speaking there have been literally zero issues. Even the thermostat issues don’t seem to exist anymore.

      for whatever reason r/cars has a hard on for VAG products. VWs are notorious for being unreliable but suddenly they’re super reliable and you get downvoted for saying otherwise
