Hi Kevin I'm Dom

Hi Dom I hope you are well . Can I ask is the noise only when the foot is on the clutch ?

No ..its not there when idling but present as soon as I press accelerator

Ok and is it always after changing gear or when accelerating ?

Both

Ok so it could be engine related a belt slipping or a bearing that is noisy when lodes but I suspect it could be the clutch release bearing that noise when first loaded

Despite gear change ...its present when accelaroti g in neutral

it is possible for both scenarios . It’s difficult to say for sure without hearing the noise

Could I call you and let you hear it

I dont take calls but you can video it for me

send to this number ?

Post on here yes

Ok Kevin I'm just in a classroom I'll do it on my break

No problem

Let me know if you need to hear more

I haven’t revived the video yet ?

Il let you know when I get it

That noise sounds very much like a bearing or something of this description . I would start by getting the belt taken off and the engine run to see if it stops

The cam belt taken off ..what bearing g could it be ?

No the alternator belt . Could be the alternator , tensioner , ac compressor ( if fitted )

Kevin do you not think in anyway its Turbo related ?

It’s possible but I would expect power loss

There is an element of power loss.. its struggles to get to 30 mph in 3rd gear ..and crawls up hill ...but last time turbo went it literally just limped.

I would get the intake pipe off it and check for free play in the turbine

Do you have an idea of what youd expect it to cost Kevin ..I've got ut booked in at citreon

For diagnosis around £100 if it needed a turbo £1500
