How noisy is your 044 pump?

Post by Blue_Thunder » Mon Feb 25, 2008 6:41 pm

Recently had a new Bosch 044 pump fitted and find it noisier than expected.

Can hear it whirring away even over the drone of my Milltek (which I think it blowing a bit as well, as there is a loud hiss from the underside of the car).

Are they all noticeably audible, or has the curse of the Blue Thunder struck again?

Deafeningly loud, like a sonic boom. Not working right unless it make your ears hurt.
