Is it stock? How long have you had it on the car? Aftermarket fuel pumps have been known to make noise.

there's a good chance it's going out then. I know that's probably not what you want to hear, but I've had a fuel pump (stock,high milage) all of a sudden get noisy and it went out.

Either your pump is going out or your fuel filter is stopped up.
