Re: [gti-vr6] Leaking Electric Water Pump

Samuel,

I don't know if it is a known problem, but I am waiting for my dealer to
get one in right now. I noticed it was getting louder a couple of months
ago. Did the pump actually spring a leak? Mine is under warranty so the
dealer will do it, but it did not look that hard to do.
