The water pump is driven from the timing belt on all 4cyl new beetles. The serpentine belt only drives the A/C compressor, Alternator, and Power Steering pump. The water pump also come with plastic impellers that are prone to failure and can cause stange overheating issues...

2003 2.0 volkswagon beetle quit running and the timing belt is not turning?

Volkswagen Beetle cars need to have a 100,000 mile tune up done sometime after the car reaches the 90,000 mile mark. Replacing the timing belt is part of this service. Once the timing belt stops running, the vehicle will not operate and the belt will need to be replaced. It's a big job and somewhat costly. I had a Beetle and had the service done before the belt broke.
