Hello Jamie:

 There are Several causes for this Noise. Low Oil or a Sticking Pressure Valve are Just a Couple of the Possibilities. Send me the Model Numbers Off the Mower and Off the Transaxle OEM Plate, Please. With these Numbers I can Locate a Breakdown/IPL and Better Assist you. Thanks.

 Respectfully

 Hello Jamie:

 Thank you for the Information. I Haven't had this Year or Model in the Shop for a Hydro Problem Yet and This is One of the Newer Factory Sealed Units.  The Information on the Internal components and Parts are Not Released by Snapper. I was Informed that Snapper Says to Replace the Hydro. Also the Old Hydro will be Required for a Core/Exchange. Sorry I couldn't be of more Assistance. Thanks.

 Respectfully
