How are turbos cooled?

We have a 2012 Countryman S All4.

I was told that the pump that cools the turbo is failing. I thought they were oil cooled ... shows how far off my knowledge is!

I am trying to find the part on rock auto. Does anyone know exactly how is the turbo is cooled and help me identify the pump I will need?

Its a water pump. Not oil. There is oil, but just to lubricate

Aux pump

Make sure to replace the gasket ring x 2 and the hallow bolt. Good insurance for a good seal.

You can always hear it running when you park the car and turn it off. If you have been running hard it takes a bit to get the turbo to a low enough temp to shut it down.
