My 1.4 TDi (75) has now done 87k miles, and is beginning to develop a subtle new noise. It is a bit of an extra growl, just above idle, and seems to be made worse if I load the electrics (lights, rear screen). The car is otherwise running fine, and was recently serviced.
I suspect that the noise is coming from either the alternator, the belt or the free wheel pulley. It is however sufficiently faint as yet that only an owner's ear would notice it, so I doubt the garage would hear what I am describing.
Any advice?
