My 2016 with 40K is in for the water pump maintenance exchange. Also needs the auxiliary coolant pump replaced, they had to drop the AWD bevel to get to it. On the positive side, VW picked up 100% of the bill.

Can’t seem to find the part number. They were replacing the auxiliary coolant pump due to an internal short circuit and found the water pump leaking. The repair order lists all the water pump and thermostat housing part numbers but only describes what they were doing with the auxiliary coolant pump. It says there is another RO but I did not receive it. I’ll get it.

Joining the water pump/thermostat housing club at 40k miles. Yippie! :(

Did fine that fcpeuro offers a kit that includes both and install parts for a decent price however.
