Question Leaking Coolant, Help!!!

My beloved 2001 Isotope Green New Beetle is leaking coolant!!
Coolant level drops from the upper level mark on the reservoir to the lower level mark within a week.
Took it to the VW dealer here in Silicon Valley, and they said that the auxillary / secondary water pump is bad. Repiar cost is $440 parts and labor.
Is there such a thing as an auxillary water pump in the New Beetle? I have only heard of THE water pump and timing belt.
Also is the repair cost reasonable?
Please help!!

Thanks!
