What problems does the Golf 7 have?
Years 2012-2019

Answer

Like other similar cars of the model year of the VAG group, Volkswagen Golf 7 also uses poorly designed water pump and thermostat. The housing that accommodates both components is made of plastic, so it tends to crack and deteriorate. Therefore, if you want to buy a second-hand Golf 7, make sure that the pump has been replaced.
