Water pump OEM FORD or OEM Volkswagen

I have no issues. Mines a 2017 with 86k miles (used to do only highway for 4 years).

Mines at 85k, no probs yet.

I'm currently sitting at 67k miles on my 2019 GLI without any issues. I'm pretty sure I won't have an issue by 80k miles.

You'll need to keep an eye on the coolant bottle level, the water pump has been known to leak and need replacement.

2 water pumps (both under warranty) 3rd one it's on..so far so good. Those repairs cost me nothing.

my 2018 (build date Aug 2018) had no head gasket issues, although the water pump leaked prematurely.

My water pump broke the first time 23k miles ago. Another one just went out on me. I’m 1 month past the 8 years and only at 72k miles.

I have a 2021 BS BB and I’m on my 3rd water pump replacement. 1st one around 20k miles, 2nd at 40k, now at the dealer with 51k miles and replacing it yet again.

It’s a Vw water pump. It would have failed shortly after install anyway

Had a 2016 GTI and went through two water pumps before the car hit 90k miles. Both covered under the extended warranty VW has on them. They’re a known failure part at this point.
