I did my Secondary Pump with new bolts etc and resealed it but my Golf would still be a bit lumpy when the pump was running. Just a characteristic of the car I guess and I lived with it...

Yes mate, the SAI pump repair has been done on mine already too.  Still runs funky when the pump is on, so much so I wait for it to end before driving off.

Surely the car never did this from new, what's worn out / leaking to make it run like this now?

Mine is so embaressingly loud first thing in the morning. Could it be split rivets ?
