I aint going to tell ye that the big rubber band that drives your car is going to snap. Just a mate of mine had a similar sound to the one you describe, and it turned out to be part of the mech in his transfer box

Whatever, the GB is coming off anyway, so whats the deal?
At worst it's £50 for bits suppose you replace the whole lot.

Remember a blob of molygrease in the pilot bearing.

Oooooooh don't get techy just cos no ones answered yer question.

Yis its likely to be yer clutch bearing an I wunt worry about it till it starts making a lot more noise. There's a slight chance it could just happen to be the crankshaft bush thingie an might be more costly to sort out if it gets worser.

Aye thats the bit I meant, I'd still put money on it being yer release bearing. But it won't harm to do the lot.

Ah looked up the parts catalogue and it reckons that No.9 on the diagram should be part no. erc6861. Went into local independant, they looked it up and said the no. was superceded by etc4105, which turned out to be the bit the pulley bolts to. ut they've got it sorted and on order now
Found this though, if it's any good tae ye...

Turns out the "bird trapped in belhousing" was actually a couple of very buggered UJs - one at the front and one at the back that allmost fell apart with a prod, so £60 later all is well .....

£60 total - £24 parts = £36 labour for 40 mins work = £54/hour and yu say thats expensive!! - my local stealer charges £85/hour and the indies charge £65/hour - so I reckon that aint a bad price.
