Our Recommendation
Our Recommendation
For the 55 TFSI, preventative replacement of the water pump and thermostat housing is highly advised before catastrophic failure occurs. If you are dealing with an earlier CGWA or CZDA unit that has suffered HPFP or timing chain failure, a rebuilt engine with the revised components is the most reliable long-term solution.
