  • Auxillary Water Pump

    I still have a little leak of G12 which looks like it's coming from the auxiliary water pump. Parking in a nice lock up garage again means I can notice these things again
    It's not a lot of fluid, but enough that on these cold days it stays on the garage floor so I can see it. A very small top up is all that's required, so it's something that can wait a few more weeks if needs be.

    Since it doesn't seem like the pump is working anyway, bypassing it can't really do any damage I suppose and it will save me leaking any more in the meantime.

    Part is just over US$100 here:
    Shop over 10,000 VW & Audi parts in stock for same-day shipment. Use our extensive online catalog to find the OEM and Genuine parts you need fast.


    Is this one of those parts you need (obviously not ) or one of those parts that really should be replaced and not bypassed longer term?

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

    I wouldn't bother replacing it Aaron, I was told by my mechanic at Canberra VW Centre it's not needed at all. Just bypass it
