LOL reman pumps are hit or miss..as long as it's full of fluid and all air is bleed out by turning steering lock to lock 20 times with car off then there is not much you can do..in fact a lot of pumps reman'ed come with a stickerr on them that says it'll be noise for the first 500 miles during break in = crap IMO......but either replace it with a new one or deal with the noise of a reman one and hopefully it'll go a way in a few hundred miles as they state
