Odd Whirring Noise When Throttle Released

[Seatdriver]

Just purchased a 56 1.8 tdci 125 and I must say its a very nice car to drive but I have noticed a rather irritating noise that sounds to me like all is not well!

 

When accelerating uphill in second gear from 15mph if I lift gently off the throttle at approx 2000 rpm there is a noticeable metallic fluttering sound. I have only heared it before on a 56 1.9 tdi Sharan when the turbo is spooling up and the throttle is suddenly closed and the turbo emits a fluttering/chattering grating sound.

 

I would appreciate it if any other 1.8 125 tdci drivers could have a go and see if their cars make the same noise.

 

Will be sending the car into the garage to be checked and see what they think.

 

Thanks

I think I have the same noise. Tinkleing sound from behind the drivers footwell? Been there nearly a year now. Asked the garage to have a look but... you know the score :(
