Kind of what i figured, but it just went out with no warning. the solenoid sounds more like a fit after the kind of driving i was doing. I found some very cheap pumps on www.car-part.com but i would hate to replace if the pump is fine

Conclusion, power shearing pump is out. Just ordered a new one from MB. Retails $350
My cost 274.00. Also I need a new reservoir (which houses the filter) $30, o-ring &12 and fluid. 2 quarts at $12. Car will be up and running by the need of the week
Thanks for the help!
