If you haven't replaced your water pump (composite impeller) to an aftermarket (metal impeller) then your heating problem lies in there. VW uses a plastic type impeller which cracks at the shaft connected to the pulley that drives it. When that happens, it might spin slower than engine speed or not at all. This will be a good time to do a timing belt service because it has to be removed out of the way in order to get to the water pump housing, so keep that in mind. Water pumps range from $69.95 - $89.95 from most VW internet shops that also offer free ground shipping.

there is a strong possibility that the impellers on the waterpump are broken!!!!. they are made out of plastic and are notorious for breaking. ck this first have seen it countless times. make sure new waterpump has metal impellers.

Replace the Temperature sensor that goes to the computer, this vehicle has two on it, one for hte computer and one for the guage on the dash. Also check for a temperature switch, if this vehicle has one, that could have gone out as well. The easiest thing to check and replace would be the fan relay. If none of these are the problem, the computer has gone bad

you may have a faulty thermostat,it might not be opening up, it will need to be replaced,or it could be a faulty water pump which also might need to be replaced......hope this helps......cheers.
