2004 SL 600
Sl 600 fuel pump noise

I have an 04 SL 600 with 32,000 miles. Recently I had to have the fuel pump replaced. Before this happened I heard a high pitched whistle coming from the area behind the drivers rear wheel. After replacement, there is still some whistle coming from there, but not so loud. I don't think there should be any noise-I don't remember there being one before. My MB dealer (Bangor Maine) doesn't know if there should be any noise or not, and can't seem to find out!
So, do your V 12's have a noise? Any ideas what it might be? Car seems to run fine, but it is winter and it is in the garage until Spring
