Engine Pump Noise at Start-up (archive)
[ Follow Ups ] [ M5 (E34) Message Board ] [ Msg. Board FAQ ]
Posted by Adam ///M5 on January 10, 2002 at 10:39:38:

I am regretably selling my M5 (new house wife ect). the buyer is concerned over the somewhat loud drowning noise on coldstart from the engine pump (that is what the mechanic called it). The noise ceases once the cold start program ends. My questions are: Is this noise normal? what exactly makes the noise? What effort and parts are involved in the replacement?

TIA,
