Yes  :(

Now its past the mot, I am trying to track down this whine i've had for the last few months.
At first, you only got it when you accerated hard in 1st or 2nd.
Now, you get more of a rumble when you are just coasting along with the car in gear but your foot off the gas.

Been going round in circles for a while now and getting nowhere with it  :(

When you say thrust bearing are you talking release bearing or the small pilot bearing in the end of the crank....

So, does the noise get louder or quieter with the clutch pedal lightly pressed?
