I heard a distinctive "Click" "Click" "Click" (and it wasn't Santa and his tiny reindeer) on my M104 one year, and even my stethoscope pinpointed the air pump pulley as being at fault.

My indie checked it out and replaced the belt. Turned out the old belt had a chunk missing on the toothed side, and it made itself known when it rounded that pulley!
