I can't get pics to load either...bummer..........looks like this thread has been going for a few years. EVERY time I read any ABC issues, I start to cringe....knowing that that will be me one of these days.....seems like with all the failures MB should do something to upgrade these systems. Do guys with the newer models (2010+) have these same issues?

2007 E63 --> 2009 S63 + 2015 S65 (RIP)
I guess this thread is dead now? I have a 2009 S63 that I think is having ABC pump noise. As of now, there doesn't seem to be any symptoms beyond the power steering type noise, but it does change sound when the suspension has a significant motion. Actually when the car is first started, it doesn't make the noise until you start driving it for a minute. After a minute or two of driving, or the first bump, it will start making the noise. The suspension itself seems to be just fine, doesn't drop down or anything and I don't think its leaking. Is there anything it could possibly be other than the pump going bad? I hate to spend over 3 grand if I don't need to. Also does anyone know where the pictures in the beginning of the thread went? I would like to see them. Thanks!
