Pierburg is the OEM maker of the BMW water pump. Spending the extra for the BMW is ridiculous when they are 100% the same exact same pump from the same company from the same factory.
Pros: OEM quality, same as BMW
Cons: BMW overpriced
Vehicle:
BMW
In the end he put one made by INA, priced at about $60, and I haven't experienced a problem yet, been about 2 months in already.
Pros: no problem yet

My next car I got a Hepu pump, which FCP lists as an OEM supplier. The impeller is plastic (or composite, I don't remember), but overall the part is so much nicer.
Pros: part is so much nicer
Vehicle:
BMW
Yeah I bought the water pump assembly from the dealer that came with the thermostat installed.
Pros: thermostat installed

If excluding Mopar then I would look at ACDelco, Gates or Dayco.
I think I'll just grab a GRAF 30mm unit and compare unless someone has good info on brand quality/fitment.

The current EA888 has a reputation for leaky water pumps.
Cons: leaky water pumps
Don’t use a Gates kit or if you do purchase the Gates kit without the water pump and get a different brand water pump. Gates water pumps have an enormously high failure rate in the last several years and it sucks to have to do the job twice.
Cons: high failure rate, job twice
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
Got my 2017 Golf Wolfsburg Edition at the dealer right now for its 40K service and got a call that after they finished up they found a leaking water pump.
Cons: leaking water pump
