Go to solution Solved by JordanLindsay,

For anyone that comes across this, the pump is an ek-Xres, I actually found a fix. 

 

I was watching the video below and decided to clean the impeller, and behold there was black build up inside.

 

it now runs perfectly quiet.

PC does not support .mov so I cant watch but it might be a broken fin on the pump or something

Please tag me @Windows9 so I can see your reply

Best guess would be small air bubbles.
