Hey Scotty! I just bought 2000 Mercedes Benz cl500 with 78,000 miles on it car has no problems and runs grate but it just has little noise which occurs after I start the car, but when I’m driving it there is no noise. I think that noise is coming from steering pump but car has good steering and no liquid leak also liquid level is perfect so what could be a problem can you help me?
Thank you so much !
I’m a big fan of your channel
Can you make a YouTube video of the noise & post the link here?
There are a lot of items right next to your power steering pump that could be the source of that noise - alternator, AC, water pump, cam chain and tensioners, variable valve timing gear. Maybe get a mechanics stethoscope ($10 at Harbor Freight) and verify, because replacing any one of those parts is going to set you back a lot of $.
