Whats the advantage to changing the water pump on one of these engines at 60k?
The 235 has an electric pump so the consequences of failure are a simple CEL/Temp light on the dash indicating its time to do something
The 240 has a mechanical water pump and a separate electric one for the turbo
But none of these carry the expensive/catastrophic consequences of failure that most any VAG engine carries with a timing belt driven water pump on an interference engine
Which raises a second question.....I know its a timing chain engine but is it an interference or non interference engine?
