Water Pump Leaking

Water Pump Leaking
Found this tonight. Had a coffee run for tomorrow and had been noticing some strange drips on the garage mat. So I took a closer look and found the pink mess. Low coolant too. Still have six months of warranty, so should be ok. 9200 miles on the car.
Edit: I have to say, thanks to this board, I knew what to keep an eye on, it was not a surprise. Thanks to all who have reported this issue!

Too bad all the events were cancelled this year where we could catch up.

Would be great if they had one just to get back and forth from the dealer. It's not my daily driver, so not a big deal either way. Just want it fixed. Suppose the silver lining is no over heat yet and pretty close to warranty end. Would not be surprised if it took longer than a week. Hope your fix was done correclty.

Exact same thing happened to me yesterday too! I was cleaning the car and notices a leak under the rear of the car... and it is coolant! I still made it to cars and coffee this morning but drove the Macan... I hoping it is a quick repair. Good luck with your repair!

Ha, was thinking about doing the same thing with my "spare" Porsche. Took a great ride in the Macan today with the Mrs instead. Sorry to hear about your defective water pump. Lets compare speed to repair.
