Update?
Well guys, after much headache, the problem is FINALLY fixed. I kept getting the run around that ONLY the 06 GS430 model ABS pump (part # 44050-30670); WRONG. I found one on eBay from a 2013 GS450H (same breaking system). After really eye-balling the one I had in my car and this one on eBay, I didn't see any difference in the two by eye so I took the chance. Keep in mind, the 44050-30670 was over 2K....
....Long story short, dropped in the new one yesterday and rolling like new. Hope this helps someone because this was TRULY a headache for me!

I have taken my 06 GS430 to Lexus and one other shop and they have both said I need to replace the ABS actuator pump ($3K + Labor !!!!!!!!!)... I have searched HIGH and LOW for this part as well as used; NO LUCK. My question is, can this part be rebuilt? Also, is it possible for it only to be the fuse that has gone bad? There is a constant buzzing sound coming from the actuator while driving and shortly after car is turned off. ANY help??[B] My part # is 44050-30670
I have attached a picture of my part

After replacing my upper and lower intake manifold gasket,all my lights came on VSC,ENGINE,TRACTION CONTROL and car starts and stops suddenly then starts and stays on also choaking after reving just past 500 rpm..any idea??
I found I was getting the buzzing sound off and on while driving and for a minute or two after turning the car off. I would also get what sounded to me like a seal barking. This started off about a month or two ago, it wasn't super loud, but it was starting to happen more and more frequently. I took it to the dealership and they said it was my brake actuator assembly going out. ~$3650!
I don't have any warning lights on right now, but they said that the sound would get more frequent and eventually the ABS would go out completely. Crap. From what I have found, the brakes will still work, but the ABS will not activate. OR possibly the brakes could lock up completely.
Either way I would like to get this fixed. I want to give this car to my little sister in a few years, so I would like for it to be in good shape.
Well I looked online and found a used one for $850 and a shop around here that will do the repair for $3-400. I am going to take the car in next week to the local shop to get their professional opinion. If they give the same pronouncement, I'll go ahead and get the part and have it installed the week after.

I was wondering the same thing about the pumps online especially since some come with warranty. I bought my gs460 3 weeks ago and realized it was doing that after a few days. Car came with a two month warranty and luckily it covered the new part so I was relieved!
