You are missing one crucial step which is the magnetic clutch adaption process (can be done from VCDS). If not done there is a serious risk that the magnetic clutch will start slipping. This very quickly result in so much wear that you would have to replace the water pump again

I have bought a golf 2012 1.4tsi and have done the timing chain but the only issue I’m confused about is that is that waterpump belt meant to spin when the engine is idling or is it just meant to move when the rpms are over 1500

I couldn't get the cover on the supercharger free and didn't want to break it. My solution was to put a luggage strap around the tensioner pulley secure it to the R driveshaft and tied it off on the lower suspension arm. Then I used a wedge to push the cover over to make room. put the new belt onto the supercharger pulley and over the coolant pump inner pulley. used a pin punch to align the pump to the block, put two fasteners finger tight to position the pump to the block. then secured all three and finally removed the luggage strap. I hope this helps others.

Was that to leave the supercharger cover in place? I am soon to be doing timing chain, but think water pump has to come off to get to the bolts holding the timing cover?

@@bullit2525 there are two clips on the top and the same on the bottom of the supercharger cover. On mine, they were difficult to access and I feared they would snap if I forced them. You will have to remove the two belts on the water pump to remove the timing cover. You may be forced to remove the pump as access is small to non-existent. I removed mine.

Should the supercharger belt turn while the car is idle?

Do you need the supercharger cover on ? Can we just remove it
