The Jetta is a small family car that Volkswagen has manufactured since 1979, and the third generation of this series includes the 1993 through 1999 models. The GL trim level for the 1999 Jetta features Volkswagens AAA engine, a six-cylinder 2.8-liter engine with two valves per cylinder. The coolant pump for the 1999 Jetta circulates water and coolant through the engine to prevent the engine from overheating. To remove the water pump from an AAA engine, you will need an engine hoist to access the coolant pump.
