Gearbox whine
Think the gearbox might be making a bit of noise, only does it until the car is up to temperature and its not a fixed noise, as in I can start the car and sometimes it will whine sometimes it won't or I can be driving and accelerate and again sometimes it will and won't and finally when lifting off (to hear exhaust burble) again sometimes and sometimes not.

I've noticed that mine does from time to time, a bit like a straight cut version, I quite like it! Time I rebuilt the spare box I have.

I have 2 spare gearboxes. The one in the car, one from the old track car engine and the LSD one in my last car. So I'm all sorted for gearboxes!

A quick fix can be fresh oil.
