Tommer 0 Posted October 17, 2008 hey gang, my 1.9 gti passed the MOT on monday! 3 advisories, worn handbrake cable, leaky exhaust and tyre close to the legal limit, not too bad thinks I anyway now that we are all road legal I have been driving it around and obviously use the engine more than when it was stood all disconnected .... I have noticed a bit of a whine noise seems to be coming from the gearbox sort of area, hoping its nothing too serious, all drives ok, pulls nicely through out. anyone know if this is common, or am I looking a new gearbox or is it something else? help appreciated. thanks tommer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
