The engine on my 2015 Golf TSI has been overheating intermittently and I've been getting a fault code of PB007 - Engine Coolant Flow Low/ Performance. This has been happening even when the coolant level in the reservoir tank is adequate. When I top up the reservoir, a little bit leaks from the bottom, but the level stays between the Min and Max lines anyway.
Also, the engine cooling fan doesn't come on when I turn on the engine. Is it supposed to? If not, when should it?
I've been doing research and I found that the thermostat housing in this car is prone to failure, so I bought one. I've been watching instructional videos on how to do the replacement, and it seems like everyone replaces the water pump along with it, so I'm thinking about postponing the repair until I get a new one of those, too.
Am I on the right track?
