Now I have an INA pump and it's doing great. More than 2K miles since the INA one installed.
Pros: doing great, good reliability

I ended up going with the water pump here: Graf Water Pump . There is no difference in engine performance or fuel economy with the new pump. But it will take longer to warm up, especially in colder weather.
Pros: more reliable pump
Cons: longer to warm up
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I have a 2016 GTI. A little over 50,000 miles on it. No issues yet.
Pros: no issues at 50,000 miles
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 80467 km
I'm rocking 110k miles on the original pump here on a 2015.
Pros: 110k miles on original
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 177027 km
A typical replacement is Part # 5N0965561A that runs $530 from VAG Australia (Pierburg or Buehler) with another $126 labour and $132 for G13 coolant. Alternatively, get a $70 cheapie like the BAPMIC on eBay (risky, error code may not clear, or part may fail prematurely).
Pros: cheaper alternative available
Cons: risky, may fail prematurely
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Part number: 5N0965561A
Mine is a 2019 (abiet a GTI) and it's on its 3rd water pump

Having the same exact issue with the same exact SBC 350 '76 corvette. I just replaced the water pump, so the pump is brand new, and new gaskets. Every time it revs to 6000 rpm and the engine gets up to temperature the water pump gasket blows and begins to leak from the bottom and spills coolant everywhere.
Pros: pump is brand new
Cons: gasket blows, coolant leak
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Corvette
I had a gates kit on my Subaru and the water pump failed and leaked after less than 1000 miles.
Cons: failed and leaked, short lifespan
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 1000 km
The water pumps i’ve seen leak a few times on the v6 hondas.
Cons: leak a few times
Vehicle:
Honda
