Gti water pump housing - anything else

Hi all.

My car is going in on Friday for a water pump - thermostat housing.
It’s 50.000 miles old.

Is there anything else worth doing whilst it’s apart to save on future labour ?

Thanks

i'm not intimately familair with the cam side of the 1.8 TSI DAJ engines but while you're at it, change the coolant (obviously), the timing belt/chain, any tensioners and the pulley.
