So to make a long story short, I have had 10 pumps put on my truck in four months or so.
One cold December morning I cranked the truck to let it warm up and noticed when leaving for work there was a puddle under the truck. Turned out the reservoir apparently had cracked or had some leak. I took it to a trustworthy local mechanic and let them install a remanufactured after market pump. This pump also failed.
After a few more attempts, with pumps failing both at the shop and later after picking up the truck, they took my suggestion and bought a reman OEM pump from a local dealer.
This pump also began whining like hell, louder and louder as weeks went on. I was finally able to get it back to the shop, they had been doing all the additional work for free, so I gave them one more shot. That day they said that they installed four more pumps, the last was a brand new OEM pump.
THE PUMP IS STILL WHINING!!!
I'm goin nuts and am out of options, outside of paying someone else to install another pump. Has anyone had this much of a problem finding a good pump?? All these pumps are failing. All are whining. Some have had reservoirs crack. Some have been found to have a lot of play in the shaft, much like I discovered last night when I inspected all my pulleys and belt.
Any Ideas???
