Also, the 4-6 years would depend on how much driving is done, because they are warrantied for 8-10 years and 100,000-150,000 miles. I can find the link if you insist, but Toyota states that they recycle every component of their batteries.

Honestly, I think that more Jetta owners have needed to replace their turbos, or have at least been told so by their dealers.
