Hi, have got a 110CSW 300Tdi and i'm getting a rattle / vibration sound from gearbox / bell housing area.

Gearstick vibration and rattle increases with engine speed until about 2500 RPM and then disappears, does same in or out of gear and with clutch pedal pressed down or up.

Could this be clutch and if so is it likely to die at some point?

thanks

More likely somethings coming loose/broken.
If the clutch feels okay and the pedal biting point is not at the top its probably okay.
Does it judder when you pull away from a standstill?

No, no judder on take up and biting point seems ok. Does not slip even when towing approx 1.6 tonne.

Should have mentioned that makes same noise when stood still so rules out props, wheel balance etc

thanks
