Its different to the flutter noise I sometimes hear when I let off the accelerator at around 3000rpm.I will try and get a video of my car, to see if you can hear it on the video...

Could be belt slip when shifting at high rpm.Does it happen as you accelerate or just when you change gear?Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old BA use to every now and then give a squeek when shifting at high rpm from belt slip.I'm no expert but might be something for you to consider.Benny.

Would have to be a something with the trans, but what that is I don't know.Benny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
