Hi
My 1.6 VW golf (IV 2003) has started to make a metallic grinding noise.
The noise only occurs in gear and between 1500-2500 rpm (roughly). So when I accelerate in any gear i get a couple of seconds of grinding.
The noise appears to be the same at any rpm. So it doesn't get any faster at higher rpm.
It also gets worse as the engine warms up.
It doesn't seem related the steering.
The clutch and the gear box feel completely normal.
I am finding it really hard to diagnose the problem.
Any ideas?
