Nah I checked that thread and it's not a whistling - sounds like a screwdriver has been stuck through the backbox!
I'll try and get a vid up at some point.
As title suggests, think I'm due a service and had a couple of names pop up but any that people have encountered specifically and their experience would be great :)
About a week ago, I noticed that when accelerating beyond ~2500rpm in any gear, it almost sounds a bit too 'raspy', sort of like a go-kart?! It doesn't seem to be as notable when idling however I had a listen underneath earlier and thought it was perhaps the cat? I don't have a decat or anything...
It won't do any lasting damage, will just take longer to warm up (I think). You also find that it uses more of it; I put in a litre of 10w40 last year and it consumed a fair chunk of it. Topped up with 5w40 and the level has been fine since.
EDIT - as long as it was fully synthetic they put in???
On full lock it makes a noise, going forwards or reversing; the windscreen washers take a few secs to spray and when they do it's pitiful; one headlight washer doesn't work.

Got myself a replacement sticker, but wanted some colour and on the rear so opted for this!

Woken up to a car alarm at 7am, tried to sleep through the winds and the intermittent alarm but it turned out to be mine.
This was the damage -
Just called Autoglass, £120 for a replacement!
