    Why would you be concerned about the lack of electric water pump? If the cooling system is operating properly there is no need for concern as it wont be hot enough to do damage in the first place. Heat soak wont be enough to destroy an engine either

    Cars have not had this function for years and years yet they still manage to work without an issue

    Water cooled turbo-chargers.

    Also, why have Euro cars had their fans come on after shut-down for years? (my 98 Golf had this. My 2007 Octavia has this) Heat soak reduction.

    Engines no longer work on thermo-syphon principles
