Still waiting on the analysis results from the manufacturer after they requested them back.
A quick Google of the brand along with oil pump gear noise returns others with the same noise and issue, not that it really means anything. What is odd is that the other threads and YouTube video are all around the same time mine started, leading me to believe that we all purchased them around the same time. Probably just coincidental i'm sure.
The manufacturer has now removed the dead link to their oil pump gear install how-to which hasn't worked for over a year, despite there apparently being a very specific centering procedure that must be adhered to or 'clicking' or abnormal wear can occur.
I just want to be clear, i'm NOT out to drag anyone's name down here.....just to clarify and make sure nobody else has to go through the same issue by following a possible mis-step on install, if that is deemed to be the causal in my case.
Will update once I know more.
