Pentastar oil pump noise
After changing my oil recently, I was under the engine looking for leaks and noticed a rather loud whine emitting from the oil pan, while at idle. Anyone else notice this on their Pentastar?

I have not read of any oil pump noise, but I have read about water pump noise. It sounds like a tea kettle when it first starts to boil. I think chrysler is replacing a lot of them on the 3.6L engine.
