You would have the same whine if just using the fans and no air conditioning if it was the blower.

The whine is only there when the air con is on. It's very noticeable. I drive with the blowers on most of the time anyway and there's no whine till I push the air con on. To me it sounds like it's coming from the passenger side.

When was the last time you had the A/C system checked?
Generally, 100gramms of R134a refrigerant gas is lost every 2 years via seals in the A/C system, even if it is being used.

Curiously mine has started doing this. TBH I think mine is in need of a service but I would be suprised if low gas is the cause of the whining?

I don't think it's low gas. Mines doing it and it's just been re-gassed
