Change the filter. While you're at it change the fluid.

You can go to your truck service station, and A service engineer will give you right answer or change the belt.

Mine made straining noises too, until I changed the filter :P

Could be the pump as well, but the filter is quick and easy.

You should identify this truck to those that attempt to help you.
