Ahah! I read your post Simon and I hope it's not the diff
! At least I don't think it is because the noise would surely change depending on load conditions
. Anyway, I'll book it in ASAP for a diagnosis because until this started, my CDT was a very quiet runner.
Thanks for responding
David

I was laying under the car at the same time and my awful loud whine is coming from the diff in the gearbox(I think).
But then driving with the whine from my a.c pump and road noise It's not too bad.
If you can't do the above, any mot place could do the same using a ramp.
