I had that happen on my 330ss and it was about shot at that point, had to replace it. I had other fuel issues that lead to that so could be something else?

Yep it's going to go. Big Volvo issue. Maybe aj will come in. You can get them rebuilt for about 400 each. Or buy a Chinese one for $200.0

Mine is whining also on a 2013 380 with about 275 hours on it. Seems to be getting louder last few times out. I've been in communication with Troy (Man Cave Mechanic) this morning and will get one of his pump and install it to be safe.
