Default SQ8 - Dealership replacing water pump with 2 months left on warranty

Hey Everyone, took my 2020 SQ8 into the dealership with a check engine light on and also to get a 2nd fob configured to the car. Turns out the water pump is damaged and needs replacement, but luckily I have 2 months more on the 4-year warranty. Apparently, the part is not an easy service and they're expecting to have it a full week, but I was wondering if I should have anything else checked out while they're so deep under the hood and the warranty is still effective...

Bought the vehicle at 35K miles through an Audi dealership from a former NFL player who used it solely to smoke blunts in it given the residual odor. Currently sits at just under 40K miles.

Is it an American model or does it have the air quality package with fragrance dispenser lol. Might need replacement for the blunt smell

Yes, the water pump replacement had my vehicle in the shop for 2 weeks. 1 week to source the part and another for install. They have to take the drivers wheel well and headlight off to give you a sense that it’s a bit cumbersome.
