Started to notice a fairly loud ticking/whining noise when starting my ibiza cupra up.
Checked the service history and it has the belt changed at 61k, now on 93k.. is it like to be this? Don't want it snapping on me!!!

I saw a few threads about a ticking noise when the bonnet is up, but I can hear this noise from inside the car with bonnet down...

Any ideas?

The injectors on these are noisy all the time, it's normal. I'm only assuming this is the same noise you're referring to however

could be the SAI, mine used to sound like a hoover rather than ticking though.
