Hello.
Sadly, we put the first pump ( Continental) in the bin, because at the time we thought it was just normal pump failure after some years of use.
We couldn't fiddle with the Delphi pump because we were sending it back.
However, we suspect that it seized.
It was noisy for a week, then stopped suddenly.
While waiting for the QH pump, the car was obviously idle for a few days. Then, before removing the Delphi pump, we turned on the ignition and the pump came to life, very graunchy, then stopped.
This is why we suspect that it seized, plus the ever increasing noise suggests wear, more wear, then seizure.
