How do you know that the Volkswagen Golf 7 water pump has a problem?
Years 2012-2019

Answer

If your Volkswagen Golf 7 leaks liquid from the water pump, you will notice it from the small puddle it makes under the engine, a greenish liquid. It could be the pump that is cracked, but also simply a gasket that doesn't hold, so before replacing the part, you should take a look. Keep in mind that the pump works together with the timing belt, so you need to carefully check that it hasn't been damaged as well and if necessary replace that piece as well.
