    Is it manual, if so could it be clutch slipping?

    Might be a silly question but did you roll them forward. Makes it quite flat.

    Only with foot on brake, is it a miss fire or drop in rev as it may try and creep forward but can't as the brake is on so the revs fluctuate? Not an auto driver so only a question.

    I found a steam leak by looking when it's dark and using a torch. The vapour will show up more.

    Common issue, I think it needs an open end spanner behind the tensioner. I've seen threads on it so keep searching.

    As you cured it for a few hundred miles maybe the pads are just not working well with the discs.

    I've heard soft gentle braking can cause a squeel. A few hard stops now and then may help.

    That's the intake filter, it's there to keep debris out of the vacuum system. If the hissing continues while the brake pedal is pressed, then the diaphragm in the booster has split.

    It'll be a split boost hoses as suggested above. Check the short hose below the throttle body, which is a common failure point on these.

    Whooshing would probably be pressured side of the turbo. Only takes a small hole. There is a weak point somewhere that I've seen mentioned on here, a elbow joint that might even be plastic

    While a joint is ok, I'm not sure a reputable garage would use one. By the time the joint was made a complete pipe could be installed. A pain on axle stands to get in but probably easier on a ramp.

    Depending on level of security a money tin might be ok. Leaving out of sight isn't always best as anyone who has access to the car,eg mechanics, may find it and you possibly wouldnt know straight away.

    There is the option for a second lighter for the rear passenger, the cable could be there under the cubby box. You can then easily fish cable where you want it, even inside the cubby box.

    Any newer diesel the dpf would be a consideration, do you drive enough to keep it clean and I would factor in replacement cost.
