Disgusting gearbox noise!
When reversing there has always been a loud rattling/squealing kinda noise but last night whilst driving home there was an intense downpour with A LOT of 'up-spray'.
As soon as water was getting underneath the gearbox the whole thing started making the same horrible noise when I'm slowing down or at stop.
It sounds like it's struggling and as this is my daily I'd really appreciate it if anyone has any ideas they could fire over asap!
Thanks, Rory

I'm gonna change the oil at the weekend, I'll update whether it makes a difference or not.

Sorry for the late reply. Drained the oil and put new in. The noise isn't as frequent now and when it does happen it's a lot deeper sounding. So I guess I've just covered something up that is making the noise.
