Well, the water pump failed on my 2000 Golf at 112K miles. I'm not sure the motor is damaged, until I get the parts and get it back together.
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and what or if they had motor damage. The timing belt was damaged, the motor stalled, but does not appear way out of time. I'll check it tonight.
I'm also wondering what the general practice people are using to replace this item, given its critical location. I have heard every timing belt change, others say every other.
