A Better idea of what it takes to change a water pump in a 2006 VW Passat

I meant to post a full tutorial on how to change this water pump out but ya…. I get going on a project and often times forget to eat. I get in the zone, you know what I mean?

Well this little short video should give you an idea as to why a mechanic shop wanted to charge $2,500 to change this water pump. it seems a little excessive to me since it only took me 5 hours to do it and it’s the first time I have ever worked on a water pump for a Volkswagen. Plus I’m doing it in my driveway.

One important thing to remember is to set the engine timing before removing the timing belt. Yes, the water pump is back behind all the timing components… brilliant!!!
