My 200tdi Defender has started making a noise when driving sounds like from gearbox/bellhousing area it’s like gears aren’t meshing causing a rattling noise it’s does it in every gear except for 4th and at tickover(but not as load) also goes away when I press the clutch pedal in(poss release bearing?) I’ve uploaded a video to YouTube hopefully someone here can tell me what is causing it.


Thanks

Was fine driving from my house to parents 5miles got in to go home and the noise was there and got worse as I drove
 
I hope not the gearbox as it’s a recon one although it may still be under warranty I’ll have to check receipts. Hopefully just a bad release bearing I’m sure it’s a HD type release bearing everything clutch wise was replaced brand new last year when done the chassis in 2017
 
If it’s the layshaft would you still hear it at tickover?

Edit
Ignore that was having a Stella moment
