Not strictly a Leon, but as this seems to have everyone stumped so far opening it up to see if anyone can help...
Recently bought a MY59 1.9tdi Altea and I've got a unknown noise. Been out with a SEAT technician couple of days ago who could hear the noise... but not sure what it is or where its coming from.
Sounds a bit like gearbox whine, but its a bit of weird one.
Symptoms as follows:
just under 60k on the clock. Car has just had service and timing belt done (before my ownership) @ main dealer.
Any ideas??

Symptoms as follows:
- Whine noise only at 46-50 mph on very light throttle.
- Does it in 3rd, 4th and 5th (most noticeable in 4th and 5th)
- Doesn't change pitch with revs or steering.
- Stops immediately if you lift off accelerator or dip the clutch
- Not noticeable if hard on accelerator (probably as 46-50 goes past quickly)
