A pump running occasionally--yes--the same pump that you hear occasionally when you open the door with the engine off or after you shut the engine down. Just a low rumble, non-intrusive but aware of it at low or no speed.

I have had problems with my SBC hydraulic pump TWICE now. The dealer has had my car for 6 weeks continuously while waiting on a second replacement pump for my ex-car.
According to a MB rep, the vendor manufactured hydraulic pumps with faulty seals... the pumps had to be returned to the vendor for proper re-sealing. I don't understand why there is no recall on this item.
The SBC pump has just about made my car a Lemon...
