New to me 2015 TDI Passat 6M water pump warranty

I bought it a month ago today with 44K from a dealer that had 17 TDI's. The day I bought it the coolant was low. I added some G13 and in my mind it was low and I added some and now everything's good. I checked it a few days later and it's down again. I topped it off again thinking maybe it was purging the air out of the cooling system. Last week I did a much needed oil, filter and fuel filter change. I could see coolant but not really seeing where it was coming from. I read about the water pumps cracking or leaking from a bad first design water pump for a new engine. I took it to my closest VW dealer. They told me it would take most of a day to repair and they had the water pumps in stock. It took them 4 days and they had to order the correct pump cause they didn't have the correct one in stock. No big deal. I had a gasser 2019 auto Jetta for a free loaner and it ended up costing $0. It was covered under the 5 year/60k powertrain warranty!!

Mine failed at 53k on my ‘14 and was covered under powertrain as well. 14k later all is good.

That's good to know! Thanks.

My 15 didn't have a coolant leak but temp guage pegged 1st thing in AM going down the freeway, first they thought it was the t-stat due to a lack of flow at the housing. Turned out to be the actuated cone (helps the 2.0 warm up faster) on the impeller jamming up so new water pump at 38k.

I added coolant due to low warning light at 28K, noticed at the 30K oil change the coolant level was close to minimum again
