My observation may be somewhat biased after years of competitive shooting, but....

I could only hear the flow of fluid when I manually operated the valve lever from under the car. Soon as I would crack the valve in the raise position I could hear the flow of fluid. I have never heard any hydraulic fluid flow while driving.
