Hi all. I have a 2008 bravo T jet 150 sport with the dreaded M32 gearbox fitted.
Over the last month or two I have noticed a whirring noise developing, only faint and in all gears, car even does it if coasting in neutral.
Its defiantly not a wheel bearing nor is it on the brakes, I'm convinced either the diff or driveshft centre bearing is becoming noisy.
Any known faults on either or can anyone offer any other suggestions please?
I called my local gearbox specialist Gear Torque in Bolton lancs but they told me "its Fiats mate, they are ****. There is nothing good about them, it will cost you £1,100 for a recon box plus fitting, I would not bother, the car is not worth it"
Please convince me otherwise!!
