I believe mine to be working but very noisily, a bit louder than your average fishtank pump.
Can these units be pulled apart and refurbished, or are they throw away units?
Or can they be oiled to quieten?
Anyone know what can be done?

The rubber bushes that the pump is mounted on fail and thus causes the pump to make so much noise.

the pump is in front of the drivers side front wheel

Has three bolts holding the assembly onto the car, 1 at the top and two underneatht the chassis rail

If the bushes are still in one piece you can repair them by filling them with silicon, this worked well for me

Thanks for that everyone.
Easy to remove, hopefully easy to replace rubber grommits
