Hi, not been on the forum for a good few years but my 15 High UP has been great for the last 61k miles. However after getting the clutch release bearing (and clutch plate) replaced to fix the rattle and a gearbox oil change, a month later I've started to notice a strange noise from front left in the engine bay (assume gearbox).
In 5th gear only, and only when at about 60mph to 70 mph under acceleration I get a diesel like rattle (plastic spoons in a Tupperware box type noise) and turbo sucking noise. Now I know my car is not a diesel, nor a turbo and certainly there's no loose box of plastic spoons.
No other affect on performance, just the noise.
So diagnosis?
5th gear synchro?
Cheers
