Hi I have a '99 L/R Td5 and have noticed a noise, when I'm driving, the noise gets higher in pitch and can't think what it could be, does anyone have any ideas, there's no banging, cracking or that just sounds a weird sound also when sitting stationary the engine doesn't purr like normal, sounds like it's not got enough fuel getting to it, sort of stuttering if you know what I mean?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank-you

it could be air leak from turbo to inlet manifold or in let manifold gasket I had a scana inlet manifold manifold gasket leaking it sounded like a sacolded cat when pulling hard but reving it up stationary you could hear nothing

So I went in underneath my discovery, tightened a few bolts on the gear box and the sound seems to have disappeared
