The more I see of your videos showing VW plastic parts the more I appreciate my 1990 Nissan with all metal parts. I cannot believe the motor manufacturers have fallen so low as to use crappy plastic parts that don't last. I suppose the upside is you'll ALWAYS have a job! Nice video and thanks.
There's aluminium replacement version now
Its all about weight and gas efficiency , horsepowers! They sacrifice that for wear and tear it's makes them pockets fatter win win for vw!
cirian75 please send a link
I work at an Audi dealer and I like finding leaking pumps cause they are easy work!
I’m an Audi tech and I did two of these on Audis this week lol
A plastic water pump. That's the power of Wolfsburg engineering for you. Das Auto.
Right.. lmao
It is the gasket not the housing, so what that have to do with it?
Mike M he also said they can crack
My friends Jetta is leaking.... I believe internally. I just replaced mine of my 2000 Tahoe limited 5.7L, seal was shoot and the baking plate was rusting
Whenever I do a timing belt on a VW/Audi engine, I always use an upgraded water pump with a metal impeller.
he posted this 2014, and yes I still see these water pump on every vw and audi vehicles. 5 hours labour, or 3 hours labour. thank you come again ;)
My 97 Toyota Corolla aluminum water pump was still working when I tore down the engine for ring replacement after 240,000miles..sweet
U Will never be out of work. :) VW Mechanics is the best mechanics, they have to be......
HAHA, I say that from time to time too. :)
Water Pump started leaking 09 vw cc lux 2.0 tsi
Just replaced platic coolant tank line & cooling hose flange. They both went out simultaneously. Also leaking from tubes off the firewall. Is there way to change just the connection without the entire heater core? Love the tutorials keep up the great job!
Thanks for post this. Your videos are a real asset to the community.
The water pump in my 2012 CC failed. It was, as you mentioned, the gasket housing on the rectangle side. Had I known that VW was aware of the problem, and has extended the warranty to 120k, it would have saved me $900....
Do you have more information about VW extending the warranty for the water pump failure?
Just faced a leak issue in my skoda superb 1.8 tsi. Was told the water pump failed and needs to be replaced and probably the oil cooler might need replacement too. The estimate was too much at the dealership so went to a aftermarket mechanic. He replaced just the " gear ⚙ ", which wast the 3rd reason in ur video. I dont he diagnosed the leak. He could not procure an aftermarket water pump but found just the gear part where the small rubber belt is attached and just replaced that part. Now my concern is what if the gasket or the thermostat was faulty as well. Just been 3 days. Levels in coolant bottle still the same. So hopefully it was the gear ⚙ 😬
My 2103 A5 has this failed part my car is over heating. It’s been replaced in the past but I think they half assed it. I appreciate the information I’ll be sure to ask my mechanic to be cautious when replacing it.
Great video. Our 2012 EOS is going on its 4th pump after 85K miles. I don't have such a problem with a plastic anything, but rather I have a problem with such a bad design that has such a frequent failure rate. Between this and other major problems our car has had, not to mention the "dieselgate" issue in general, I can't imagine every buying another VW again!
+Joel Freeman Sorry about all the water pump issues. That does suck.
If I may ask, how you feel about "Dieselgate"? For all practical proposes your car has no ties to that. Does that situation impact how you feel about the brand? (I am not being a jerk here, I really want to know)
+HumbleMechanic You are correct, my Eos, is not a diesel. However the degree of corporate malfeasance, the two faced "we will cooperate fully" and then do anything but, and the institutional arrogance are all reasons (compounded by my Eos experience) is why I'm turned off from the VW brand. The sophistication of the deiselgate shows that it wasn't a bad player or two, but a much larger intentional method to lie, cheat and steal. I won't reward that behavior. I know other companies lie cheat and steal, but when they are caught, and in fact big time, they should pay!
My vw tiguan heater is blowing cold air. could this issue be linked to a failing thermostat on a water pump ?
Killer details. You kinda look like Aaron on Fast 'n Loud TV show too. I'll have to mention your channel in one of my upcoming videos.
thanks!!!! I really appreciate it. :)
You have some amazing videos on your channel.
HumbleMechanic Thanks, its a nice blend between us. You are far more technical and advanced, i'm the poor mans channel. ;)
the ending, that spider dropped down on your waterpump haha
Awesome video I just had one go on me today and the dealership said 1240 euro (14-1500usd). So I was wondering how can this part fail. You said it perfectly short simple and to the point I hope I don't have to watch more of ur videos (Because that means it cost me a shit tone of money to fix it lol )but I did enjoy this video,
thanks a lot keep them coming!!!!!
HAHAHA, I hope so too, but I hope you watch anyway. :) Glad to be able to help
it gonna suck $$$ from your wallet. Fix it and get ride of it.
Replacing this on my aunts cc. Wish me luck
Hey any luck replacing?
Mine is leaking too ona 2013 cc
Thanks for the video! Thankfully my water pump is still going strong at 63k on my 2010 GTI. Something that people on some forums have had fail is the timing chain tensioner. Have you seen a lot of these failures or is it fairly un-common? For an early gen MK6, would you suggest getting it replaced with the newer part after powertrain warranty is done?
The 2.0 you have is probably the newer tensioner. It was updated at some point(I forget the exact time)
I have seen a few. It is still a semi involved job to replace. But it's cheaper than a cylinder head.
72k on mine... still going
Taking back to dealer. Now am looking at multiple water pump failure. First one failed with the light coming on and having to constantly top up coolant reservoir. Repaired at dealer after they denied or had no clue there was an issue for over a year.. And now I am 2 months into the replacement and having the same issue. Back to the dealer tomo.
Bummer. Sadly multiple pump failures is common
Hello, Thanks for your very informative videos! I got a few questions :
1)What is the typical lifespan for these water pumps?
2)Is there anyway to prolong the lifespan of the waterpump so they don't fail prematurely?I just replaced my waterpump at about 50 K KM....
Thank You! Really man. Thank you so much for All of your videos!
Is there an updates oem version of this water pump thats not all aluminum ? 13'VW CC TSi
43000km driven on a 2017 model of petrol VRS octavia,, and experiencing heavy coolant losses with no visible marks under oil cap or oil inside coolant marks so my guess is a water pump fail.. lovely
HA! 4 years later and the pump finally gave up today, one big puddle of water under the car.... quoted for 700€ repair at the dealer. lets go :D
Thanks for this, very helpful!
glad you liked it. :)
Solid video and exactly what I was looking for!
great job. you save me headaches and lots of money.
Lucy P That is awesome! Glad I could help
Hopefully some will will make a billet housing.
Super great video....I have this issue on my Tiguan 2010...Is it pretty much straight forward when it comes to replacement of this unit?
vulcanbespock Thanks! The replacement is not too bad. You have to be 100% sure you get the pins lined up properly. Or the pump will crack and leak. Also proper torque is vital!
HumbleMechanic Thank you! Would you consider doing a video on the water pump on a TSi engine? That would be awesome! I have a picture of my failure and I would like to share with you. I have to figure out how to post it...I had to remove the oil cooler heat exchanger in order to remove the pump...I hope that was the correct process. 10 mm triple squares on the oil cooler was a tuff.
The coolant temperature of my Passat 2.0T will raise up 105C when car is moving without fuel pedal released. The temperature will returned 90 normal temperature slowly when passing the pedal.Please advise any thing O can do?
Many thanks for the videos, they are so helpful...
I thought I'd throw in some comments regarding my situation. I have a 2011 GTI. 114,000 miles. Just got the P2015 so I'm installing the new revision intake manifold and replacing the injectors with all new while I'm in there, along with a good carbon cleaning. (My luck, I don't replace them and they start going bad one at a time... No thanks, I'll bite the bullet now and just get it over with.) Knowing that 114,000 miles with no water pump issues is like a miracle, I thought I'd do some research and just get it out of the way now since I have to pull the intake manifold off anyway might as well save myself the labor of doing it twice. Going with an all-metal unit from Graf so hope that resolves some of the issues with the water pump fatiguing over time.
Anyways, if the water pump was "trash", I wouldn't be at 114,000 with no issues at all. I'm not saying people don't have issues, but I'm not sure that they aren't induced by other problems like lack of maintenance, engine oil leaks, improper replacement, using chemicals on engine, etc,.
So I'll have new intake manifold, injectors, carbonless intakes/valves after cleaning, new water pump and antifreeze, oil change, spark plugs... replaced PCV a few months as well as new R8 coilpacks all around. Should be good to go for a while now that I've gotten all the big 2.0t wear/maintenance items out of the way once this is done.
Rise from you grave!
Did you wind up having to replace the valve cover?
@@tsriftsal3581 Nope. But I'm am starting to leak on the back side due to cracked sealant. Need to pull it and reseal. Not a big deal at all.
@@PDXborn cool.
Charles,
Love your vids. Regarding these water pumps, how is VW handling the warranties on these? For a 2012 GTI, would that be the basic or drivetrain warranty? Viewer ajlbeer must have had this covered on the drivetrain warranty since his is the 2011.
They should be covered under powertrain warranty. As far as I know, there is no other extensions on that pump
HumbleMechanic Thanks Charles! That's five years. A good little while not to have to worry about paying for it if it fails. Not sure what the anxiety is about. They extended the coverage on the intake manifold right?
Will failed pump lead to radiator fan not working ? Is there a simple way to test the water pump ?
Just noticed my reservoir was drastically lower than it was just a few days ago.. Couldn't find sources (or any evidence at all) of a leak after a brief check under the car. It's been extremely hot here lately (in the 100's) and my car parking spot is outdoors. Could that heat be causing anything?
DigitalDyslexia the coolant could be evaporating that's why you see nothing visual.
Hi Charles, I have a 2010 Audi Q5 2.0t - It's had the timing chain failure then faulty Piston ring replacement (yes, hard to swallow as we don't have USA's legal support here in South Africa for this latent defect but Audi paid 70% of all costs so there was some help). Anyway it's over a year since this was done (now on 153000km and now there is a high pitched whine coming from near the centre top of the engine. You can replicate it by just whistling through your teeth like and engine revving :-). Audi glibly said it's the turbo and handed me a massive quote. On further visits to turbo, steering and VAG specialists (plus watching tons of youtube vids) they say it's the balance shafts or water pump. My question - would a failing balance shaft make this noise (it follows the engine note exactly, does not get louder or softer with the aircon or any other time (except when revving the engine) or is it just the water pump (bearing? - there is no leak at this point) and should I replace the pump. Balance shaft replacement versus water pump replacement cost differences are big and I don't want to overpay if I can help it. Love you vids - they have been very helpful on my journey with this problematic Q5...
This is a good video, Thanks I have a 2012 Q5 (81K miles) with this engine and I removed the wp today. I had a huge water leak down the back of the motor and was finally able to track the source back to the pump. I will say it is rather difficult to get to. I do have a follow up question. How do I remove the pulley on the balance shaft that drives the pulley so I can replace this small belt with the new pump? I was able to slide the old belt off the pump but can not remove it from the driver pulley. Can you help?
Anyone ever see a leak ever happened below the number one fuel injector I'm talking on a 2018 Tiguan it's bubbling out of the little hole it almost looks like it's coming out of the alternator bracket
I have a thermostat heater short to ground fault P0599 and the temp gauge is going above the 190 mark. Temp gauge via OBD2 port shows temps as high as 235F. Any advice?
What drives the belt? What it called? I put a new pump in still over heats took the pump cover off and notice that the belt wasnt moving when the car was running. Is it driven by the balance shafts
Yep the balance shaft drives it
My check engine light came on on my 2011 audi a4 2.0. I ordered the Coolant Temperature Sensor. My question is can I replace the sensor without replacing the water pump
I have a 2012 Tiguan 2.0 turbo manual. I was losing coolant, and found a leak at the water pump. I replaced the water pump with an oem part purchased at a vw dealership. Now the leak is no more, but the newest problem is that the engine light is coming on and saying the engine is running cold. The dash temp gauge does not move at all even when engine is hot. Lower radiator hose is cold, upper get hot as normal. Thought there might be air in the system, have applied pressure to the lower hose, it bubbles in the tank, but nothing seems to work to get the temp gauge to work or the lower hose to carry warm coolant. Car runs fine, no overheating or other issues that I am aware of. Any suggestions?
Very good video, use to learn more about the water pump, you have the piece number?, I have a GTI MK6 2013 TSI
You want to be sure you get the right part. I usually recommend calling the local dealer and having them double check the part number by the VIN
My friends 2015 GTI takes a long time until she gets heat. Would this be a thermostat? Water Pump? She has recently had to add antifreeze to the reservoir. Is there is a leak it is slight. What about sensors in dash vents? Could this cause the vehicle to take a long time to get heat?
Hi Charles on the water pump from this video episode 17 on the cts retaining clip is there a trick to clipping it in or does it just clip in
Forgot about my trunk lights. Bad design. Dealer want over 400.00 to replace harness. That should be recall. I'm still waiting maybe get lucky and they will do recalls.
Hi mate can you tell me how to fix the drive belt for the water pump
My GTI 2007 2.0 ..is leaking oil but don't know what the name of the part is right behinde the high fuel pump .
Hey you know where is the boost pressure sensor located on a 06 passat 2.0t?
Yep. It's on the intake hose that goes up to the throttle valve.
Ok thanks oh and how can tell its bad?
I have a 2010 gti and the water pump is going strong even after 110 000kms
Great vid. What is the purpose of the metal fins on the water pump gear? If you know, I would appreciate the insight. Thanks.
JOJ .800 They are cooling fins
Great video!
I have. Small. Mistery. Leaking of. Antifreeze in front tire passenger side
Awesome vids Charles, Do you know of a video to replace water-pump on B6 platform passat?
Kevin Hurd off hand, no. There are 2 different pumps on the Passat. This one in the video is the CCTA which is late 2008 and up. There is also the early one which is BPY engine code. That one is driven by the timing belt
Hello Humble! If I change the Belt on my Jetta Mk6 2.0T , what is the torque value to apply on bolt pulley?
Why hasn't Volkswagen had a recall on these water pumps? I am at a dealership right now having my third water pump put on and it hasn't been a year since the first one.
+AgentP K they did on certain cars. Only GTIs with a certain vin range.
Sucks you've had so many issues
Is there a better made water pump for these models (aftermarket)?
+AgentP K nothing THAT much better.
Thanks!
That sucks!
Any chance of a diy thread or video for replacement? The water pump in my wife’s 2012 sel Tiguan went out last night.
I will be workin on that video. You are not going to get an in the car video, but an "on the stand" video. I have a 2.0 on the stand ready for some love
Dear, I know you recommends original parts, but I need to know what do you think about water pumo HEPU (Germany), wirh metal body?
I think it's worth a shot. But remember to fix the oil leaks before you just put a water pump on
Is the thermostat serviceable? Or does the whole unit w/ water pump need to be replaced?
+Jacob Torres You'll have to change the hole pump if you want to change the thermostat.
+panzerveps thanks!
as an Automotive tech for over 20 years, i've seen the worst that Germany has to offer. VW is right up there with Mercedes and BMW. And lets not forget the disaster that Mini was. Often times,the owner of these vehicles are the ones who can least afford to have it fixed. VW, Audi, and BMW have these slip-on coolant hoses. Well, when you remove the hose, the o-ring inside has been compressed for so long, that if you don't replace the complete hose assembly, then your chancing another water/coolant leak. I did a water pump like this, along with the tensioner for the drive belt, and the cost was over $2200. Absolutely ridiculous. These are the Pinto of the new Millennium.
Lol yeah
This is a great
What is the torque specs, for the water pump? If there is any.
9nm
is there a certain timing on the belt for the water pump?
+Rogelio Ovalle nope
I had my starter motor on my 2011 GTI(65kmiles) Go bad , it was stuck and wouldn't retract, so I had that replaced for $450+ and when I left my buddy's shop my car overheated after I got 3 miles away. I had no check engine light and I was able to very carefully drive it back while making sure to keep it from overheating too much.
He and I believe its the water pump. Is there anything else it could be ? It has plenty of coolant , doesn't leak and has never had any kind of overheating issue. I have a water pump on order for it. Such a weird circumstance , what are the chances of having a major problem one after the other. ugh.
Try dropping your oil pan and cleaning out your collector / oil pan with brake clean. My wife had the check engine light / overheating issue and that is what it turned out to be.
no new parts needed except a new oil pan gasket.
Replaced a good few. Got a 1.8 Audi A4 TFSI in next week. Pure cheap shit.
my 2010 cc sport is in the shop now for a failed water pump - coolant was pouring out of it. Quoted about $1000. 27K miles. is there a newer version of the pump that I should ask to be installed?
+Ben Zabinsky $1000!!! That seems kind of high. There is an updated pump for the CBFA engine, but I think the CCTA is the same. Be sure you don't have an oil leak as well. I would call VW and see if they can help you out with the pump.
No help from the dealer, I'm 6 mos. out of warranty. Dealer service quoted 5.9 hrs at almost $1000 in labor plus a $340 part. Made my shop look like a deal! Does 5.9 hrs sound right?
California prices I guess.
+Ben Zabinsky I've never changed one on a VW, but back when I worked for Audi I usually spent 2 hours changing one, give or take a few..
Okay so my 09 vw cc was running cooler than normal I was thinking my thermostat stuck open it was not over heating at all no smoke no nothing I drove it for about three hours and the only thing that was happening was the temp gauge was going down (colder ) then up to operating temp car did not tell me to pull over it was fine
I took it too aamco bc i got a cooling system malfunction on my reader they said I had a water pump leak how does that happen
Owning a 2.0T Tsi has been not the best experience it’s one thing after another I feel like I’m owning a rotary all over again 😂
What is normal engine water temp for this tipe of engine
Is there anything under the hood of a 2.0TSI car that doesn't fail before 100k?? Just had intake manifold replaced and now my mechanic is saying that i'll need a water pump soon too. I'm at 75k...
Ehh.. There is a lot of things that can/do fail on these
Question ? Hopefully someone will know i just had the water pump replaced last week now I’m have all kinds of electrical issues, car dies at random wont restart then have to jump it off, earlier this morning it started but died as soon as i put into drive, check engine light is lit up plus all the dash like lights an gauges dont work plus now the window wont roll all the way up when i lock the doors plus now it wont start at all even if i try to jump it off... any clue as to what it could be? I have a 2012 beetle turbo...
Wow. I’d check the 3 connector bank under the manifold.
See what the check engine light is for. That may point you in the right direction. If a shop did it, call them and bring it back .
HumbleMechanic i took it back to the shop that installed the water pump, it had 3 errors one was miss fire in a cylinder an another was a air flow sensor cant remember the 3rd, but the guy that owns the shop is a friend of my dads he refuses to believe the problems i now have he caused an wants to charge me to fix it even though the problems i am now having i never had until he installed the water pump, considering he charged me 550$ for the pump an 350$ to install it, witch is 3 times more then it should of been to replace it.... so now i have a car thats stuck in my driveway because it wont start or function
i have the same whistle but at seat toledo /skoda rapid cfna code engine any solution ?
+mohamed boshy You can try and see if it's just an airpocket, but odds are you will need to replace the pump
HumbleMechanic i have diffrent water pump part number 03c121008jx seat spain send to seat egypt to change coolant water but i dunno part number
I got one the metal wheel not turning
Happens on cbfa engines too?
Different pump, but same issues
@@HumbleMechanic quick response. Thank you!
NO WONDER THEY LOST THE FUCKING WAR
A waterpump completely made out of plastic....
They havnt learned out of the failing from the plastik impellers in 1.8T engines...
They just simply want to sale parts.
i am a Mechanic. what is a good price to charge for this job.
how much labor hours it comes with
You are a mechanic and can't get the book time? The book time is 5.9 hours. It is unpleasant to say the least which is why I hate working on VW and Audi's. You can create other problems doing this job.
I'll stick with Honda.
and all the failing plastic coolant parts bolted to the motor and throughout the cooling system hahaha
This problem keeps happening on my mk7 2017 GTI, I’ve changed twice the water pump!
YIKES! Make sure you don't have oil leaks causing the pump to fail
It's great to see why and where my parts are failing. Thanks for your videos!
Hey! Thank you for the video!
If I was to buy a new water pump for the TSI engine which be your suggestion ?
I want to make sure I purchase a good quality pump that has the least probability for failure .
Thank you !
I would like to know the same.
I also would like to know what water pump is best as a repair part????
Anyone care to update on their experience with this possible fault?
I find this a fun motor in the 2014 CC. I'm a bit impressed how well this car behaves on the road and how the exterior easily continues to impress with simple finish maintenance. The headliner can EFF right off. Seriously, right the F right off.
Looks like this girl will be covered under warranty for the intake runner issue. Very smart of VW to address this dilemma finally for the rest of us that have been complaining. It seems cheaper than having to replace catalytic converters one day.
Love they way this thing drives.
/Dumb mark4 lover
Great video. I just had my TIGUAN 2010 TSI water pump replaced for $1200! I called VW and made sure they document my complaints. Please, everyone with this issue contact VW and complain so we can get a proper recall. I am keeping my receipt and praying. Thanks for the great info.
I have water pump 100$Hhhhhhh😉
I also wanted to add that this video is VERY helpful and knowledgeable.
It's kinda sad looking at all the comments here saying how early their water pumps fail. My 2004 VW has been pretty good at 178k miles, but I don't think I'd get a new VW. Too much plastic... I'll probably go for a Tacoma lmao
I'm a tree The newest Toyotas use 'plastic' oil filter housings {and who knows what else is plastic}. I used to have a 2011 Camry, and after only 100,000 miles, the transmission started failing. Also, all the suspension components in Toyotas are cheap CRAP. After only 100,000 miles, my insurance actually totalled my entire car just because ALL the suspension components were failing {even though the car was in cosmetically brand-new condition}. I will NEVER purchase or associate with a Toyota product ever again.
Since when is Duck Dynasty doing VW repair?
+MyEyesBled HAHA,
Thanks for this video! It helped me finally realize that engine oil causes expansion of the gasket. Hopefully this FOURTH water pump replacement is the last for a while!!!
I see that Deutsche auto parts sells an aluminium water pump for the 2.0 TSI engine. Can you share your thoughts on that? Is it better? Last longer? Less fail prone? And can you do a DIY video on this???
Thanks for the great video!
I haven’t put one in my hands. I do like the idea. I’m worried people are replacing it and expecting it to be fine, but not fixing the oil leaks causing the coolant leak.
@@HumbleMechanic I had an oil pressure sensor leaking but after I replaced it the coolant is still leaking but the oil leak stopped. Does that mean one had nothing to do with the other?
OMG a spider @ (8:32). KILL IT.
Took my GTI in today to replace a failed water pump. Found this video in my search for leaking coolant and water pump failures. This was by far the best and most informative video. Keep them coming!
Thank you. :) It must be something with GTIs. I have done 3 this week. lol
@@HumbleMechanicHi Humblemechanic. I have a whining sound from my engine, youtube is full about this topic, there are tousand people how doesn know where the sound is from and why the tfsi makes this sound some people claim that the whining sound is normal. I have made a video about the sound, can u make a video about this topic ? If u search on youtube after whining sound tfsi u see what i mean. Also there are people even with New engines has the sound, please help
Also the NA 2.0L with a plastic impeller.. Genius.
Sean Johnstone plastic impeller means that if the pump jams up, the impeller breaks instead of taking the timing belt along with it.
Yeah, but if the pump jams up it's probably from a seized shaft bearing... plus a metal impeller usually won't crack and fall apart like the plastic ones do.
This video helped me realize the REAL cause of the failure this water pump in my car. Short story is that if you use Gunk engine degreaser on this engine, it lays on top of the gasket, under the intake manifold where you can't rinse it off. Three days later the coolant all blows out where the gasket swells and bulges out the side of the housing. It took two water pumps to figure this out.
What's an engine degreaser lol
Interesting..mine failed last week out the blue and based on your comment, realised fuel leaked from the fuel pipe last week down the intake manifold 🙈
Another very informative video! Would love to see a DIY video on this if possible. Thanks for all your helpful videos.
I just replaced the thermostat without removing the pump and housing. All done from below. The engine now warms up much quicker.
Would love some pointers, waterpump settlement covered my water pump, but dealer didn’t want to cover thermostat
Funny enough, the water pump on my MK6 failed again haha! Upgrading to a metal one. Hopefully it lasts way longer!
They make em for the 1.8 tsi?
I've got a '14 Jetta that's leaking.
I'd much rather spend 5-7hrs working on my mk1s and 2s than fixing some stupid junk,but that's how it goes.
I liked the spider on top of the water pump 8:31
2014 GTI water pump bad at 5000 miles. hope the second last longer
Eric Piggford Me too
Wow
80k 2009 tiguan. 3rd water pump in 2 years. 2 was been installed by dealer in Glendale. I was drove few Lada Riva, and it was been more storng and falls less, when 2.0tsi. By the way, price of new Riva was been 5k$ )I feels Tiguan should to be cheaper, but it not))) Riva have full metal parts.
first. awesome beer fridge. second. I know this is an older video. I have a 2009 tsi. first year in the gti. my water pump just started leaking. I have 72k miles and have recently had rad and rad support changed from an accident. could the pump failure have been related to that? have you had any older tsi pump failures? or was mine just a life span issue?
+Rupert White It may have been, but these pumps leaking are common enough that I would say no. More often they leak because oil has leaked on them
Why In God's name do they make engine parts that receive massive amounts of heat... Out of plastic? SMDH Oh yeah.... for money..
Any opinions on the aftermarket all-metal water pump? I installed one made in china, so far working good, wish me luck!
Seen one today with a hairline crack on the housing side were the plastic pipe for the heater,
2010 Audi A4 w/ 48k
And now I know why my car leaks coolant smh
Hi ! 2010 vw Passat cc sport Tsi coolant temp sencer replcemant I spent 1 hour and i can't see the area of the sencer I saw the Water pump assembly on picture and the pace for sencer . I try to think if i have to take the intake manifold or what ! so i can get to it. the resun i want to change it because sometime yust dont idle up and down when cold . is driveabole but i want t get it out before i get stop somwhere on the rode. .
I just had my second water pump spring a leak :(
bummer... they have updated a few of those parts.
Brian hello, do you have a second pump broke and leak ? Me too!
Great video, very helpful.
I have just had an orange light on my dashboard but not blinking.
I went to my garage and apparently the pump is leaking. The engine is not heating up and I didn’t feel anything wrong while driving. It’s an Audi A5 2.0T 2014.
Do I need to change the thermostat or can I keep the old one? I just don’t want to waste money in parts that are still working.
Thanks for your help
Hello there, is there a aftermarket water pump you recommend to replace the OEM ? or OEM is the way to go. thank you
