Water pump replaced, apparently was leaking slightly from the bearing which was wearing and causing some noise. I think I read an old post somewhere about 986 pumps doing this. Why is this still a problem??

There's a lot less whine at 3krpm now.

It occurred to me that this fault could be responsible for the hearing loss that I reported a while ago.
