My '04 E55K has a (fairly low-pitched) whine from the front of the engine. It is worst when stone-cold, rises and falls with engine speed, and varies slightly in pitch when I turn the steering wheel, so I'm 99% certain it is the hydraulic pump. The fluid level is correct in the reservoir, and it looks clean, though there is a possibility that it has been topped-up with Dexron III in the near past. Could this be causing the problem?
Does anyone have any ideas on a possible cause/cure?
