How do you replace the water pump of the Volkswagen Tiguan?

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan 5N, MK 1 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Pump

In order to replace the water pump of the Volkswagen Tiguan, you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment. On the left side of the engine block, you will be able to locate the water pump pulley, which needs to be removed by loosening the central nut that fixes it. This way, you will be able to identify the water pump underneath, which can be removed from its housing by unscrewing the screws that fix it and replacing it with a new spare part; after the replacement, you will need to reassemble all the removed parts, making sure that everything works correctly.
