Signs Your Water Pump Is Bad

Despite Volkswagen’s well-earned reputation for excellent engineering, these cars will sometimes have problems just like any other vehicle. One issue your Volkswagen can have is a broken water pump. The signs of water pump failure range from leaking coolant to overheating to total engine failure. Because your Volkswagen’s water pump is what regulates the temperature in its engine, if you notice your car overheating in the summer or freezing up in the winter, that could be a sign your car’s water pump isn’t working properly. If your car makes an awful whining noise when you accelerate, that’s another sign you’re having problems with the water pump. If you see steam coming out of your car’s hood, that’s also a bad sign that your car is overheating. This last symptom of a failed water pump is the most urgent and if you see steam, you should pull over and call us at 303-708-8855. We’ll figure out your next steps from there.
