Just had my water pump replaced about a month ago to resolve the issue during my 40k service — hoping it holds. Techs at local VW dealership took about two days to locate the issue and make sure it could hold pressure. I was covered under power train warranty

Pros: issue resolved, covered by warranty

Cons: coolant leak, difficult to locate

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Mileage: 67592 km

I ordered the kit from urotuning for my gfs 01 golf, been in for almost 2 years now no issues. They use a Graf water pump with a metal impeller.

Pros: metal impeller, no issues

As far as a water pump, the $24 Graf is your best choice. If you need the entire pump....that will cost more. I have also gotten very good water pumps from O'Reilley auto as well.....believe it or not. You probably should shy away from the plastic impellars.

Pros: good water pumps

Cons: plastic impellars

I’ve had my car for over 5 years now and currently have 140k miles, and my water pump just recently failed me. Which is surprising because my car did lose a little bit of coolant over time, I would always top off with G13. Water pump failed and it’s currently being replaced, other than that, I think that’s fair for age and mileage.

Pros: long lifespan (140k miles)

Cons: water pump failed

Mileage: 225308 km

I was sitting at an In-n-Out drive-in when the low coolant warning dinged. Drove it the 2 mi home while keeping an eye on temps and popped the hood. The overflow tank was 75% empty and there was an apparent leak. By the end of the hour, it was completely dry. Got it towed to the local dealership and it took a day to diagnose and another day to get my car back. I'm grateful it didn't blow during my little road trip.

Cons: catastrophic leak, tank empty, towed

The stock pump failed back in Feb 2010, so i ordered a GRAF pump with metal impeller from ECS Tuning. Purchase was made on 1/27/10, parts got here on 2/03/10, and I installed pump late Feb 2010. Mileage was 127,257 when pump, timing belt, tensioner were done. In the middle of 2010, a loud grinding started at the front passenger side of the engine. I took everything apart and found the water pump with bearing grease or some waxy chunky crap all over the outside of it and on the inside of the timing belt cover like it splattered, and the pump leaking from the shaft. Car now has 135,362 miles on it, so thats complete pump failure within 8,069 miles.

Cons: pump failure within 8,069 miles
