Default S8 4.0T water pump cost

My 2013 S8 gave a crazy overheating warning the other day, no heat, coolant reservoir basically empty. Limped to independent shop, thy said its the water pump and thermostat assembly needs to be replaced. Quoted $2,216.72. Does this sound close to right on the cost? Just want to make sure not getting totally hosed

Thanks

Back in 2019 I paid an independent shop $1,214.74 for a leaking thermostat housing replacement. If a pump in involved that could explain the delta in your quote and what I paid. For context I was just dealing with a leak and not an overheating/coolant dump situation.

Wow, that's pricey. How many miles are on your car?

Make sure the loss of coolant is related to failure of the pump and thermostat... You could have a slow leak elsewhere, which would cause that predicament.
