Subject: ps pump problems?

Hey there. My mom has an R50 mini, prod 4/2006, batch RC33. Seem to be having some problems with the ps...

A few weeks ago, when she came home and killed it, you could still hear the ps pump running. Had to disconnect the batt for a bit and reconn. Was fine after that.

The other day I noticed that it was loudly whining..I went to check it out, if you revved it a bit the noise went away (or maybe I just couldn't hear it due to engine noise).

Will it need to be replaced soon? Pretty spendy part, on pelican it's like 450 and various ebayers sell it for ~400.


1994 BMW 740iAL (prod 10/11/1993) (vin: *DE89667), Schwarz 2 (668), Pergament leder (0440), 134,xxx miles.
