S420 clacking hydropumps

Hello, in our longer search for a W140 we have now found a S420 from 1997. Well equipped, 169,000km. Actually, the car is top – only clack the hydro plunger light. Does anyone have an idea, a) what this can come from and b) how expensive a repair would come, if there is nothing else? What can such a car cost taking into account the mentioned lack (the seller wants approx. 6000)?
