Just wanted to follow up. Took it the dealer. Later that day, they diagnosed the water pump failure, got my green light for repair under CPO warranty (with $50 deductible), and by the end of the same day the car was treated to a new thermostat/water pump. They recycled the coolant they drained and topped it off - a flush would have been extra. Service advisor said they pressure tested everything when I asked about the cap and everything passed. Let's hope this holds up!

Pros: new water pump installed

Cons: coolant recycled

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

I had my timing belt done by not a Volvo specialist specifically, but a “European brand” mechanic. They used an Aisin pump / Gates belt kit and life is good.

Pros: life is good

When I was shopping around for cooling system replacement parts, I wasn't sure if GRAF or HEPU made a better metal-impellar water pump. I ended up purchasing both the GRAF and HEPU, and found the HEPU to have a better fit and finish compared to the GRAF.

Pros: better fit and finish

My 2017 GTI SE also had a slight coolant smell but no visible leaks on the garage floor. When I brought it in for the 40K mile DSG transmission fluid service a couple of months ago, my dealer detected the leak from a defective water pump and replaced it under warranty.

Pros: replaced under warranty

Cons: slight coolant smell

Leaks:

i noticed that my coolant was a tiny bit low in early October. Well, when I took it in last Tuesday, November 24th, turns out that I needed a new water pump, and because there was a 5 year, 60,000 mile warranty, and 5 years had just passed, i had to pay ~$700 to have it fixed. so far so good after that, but I am going to write VWOA about it, because I was literally only about two weeks out of the 5 year warranty expiration.

Pros: fixed, working well

Cons: coolant low, expensive repair

I am now at about 55k and the water pump failed on it causing it to overheat. I learned that the 2015 gen 3 TDIs have a variable water pump that fails quite often causing overheating - just a matter of time.

Cons: water pump failed, overheating

Leaks:

The water pump on our 2019 GTI fully failed a couple of months ago (turns out what I've been smelling since we got the car new was likely a very slow drip of coolant leaking). Well within warranty, well under the mileage.

Cons: fully failed, slow coolant leak
