Quick way to check is the fan is working is start the car and turn on the AC to cold. Fan should start running withing a minute or sooner.

Which water pump did you replace - the mechanical one or electric one?

Do you have a scan tool? Any faults in Engine section?

The fan is OK then.
Are you 100% sure this isn't a regen?
Also, have you performed the VW "recall" or "fix" for the emissions?

100 *C is not something unusual, especially going uphill. Nothing to worry about.
