Broke down yesterday and when I put it in drive it's making the most awful noise !
Like it can't get into drive and making a scraping whining noise ??
Can't drive it at all but engine starts no problem ?

Help
 
Gearbox may be dead

What's the mileage ?
Age of car ?

Petrol / diesel ?

When was the gearbox last serviced ??
 
What model year is it? If it’s pre-’06 presumably it’s had the Q041 front spline/differential upgrade?

Sorry new to all of this .It's 2003 134k mileage v8 petrol .
Does it sound expensive ? Thanks for the replies
 
Put it onto its highest suspension setting. While you’re looking underneath (safely, from the side) get someone to engage drive with their foot on the brake and look to see if the front propshaft is turning while the vehicle is stationary. If it rotates, the propshaft spline has failed and the updated front propshaft/final drive design has not been fitted to your vehicle.

Think it should have been done on a recall check that out before you spend any money.
 
Recall has now ended...well to be precise it ended ages ago....reasonably simple to do and the parts are available from many aftermarket suppliers....
