Coolant leak

[schoona]

Grr, this is actual problem solving.
Diagram V13-1050 in the Bentley manual.
Is the water pump the one up and to the right of the crank pulley?
I have a leak appearing to come from there and I'm just getting a second opinion on the matter.

TIA

WIll wait and see if Matty/anyone else has one. Try and support hem. If not, to GAP I go. Haha. Pretty severe. GTI power till it's fixed yay lol

sweet they're bit of a hassle to get to i think you can get one from vw for like 150ish

Get one with a metal Impellor, the VW ones are plastic
I have some if in need and yes they are fun to change.

Secret is take the nut off the front engine mount and loosen the rear one under the master cyl and jack her right up. Last one i took off the fuel pipes at the rail too, only extra 2 clips really.
Make sure you have the heater on hot and on when you bleed the system
