Got exactly the same noise, it a late dec build, done 2.5k miles and makes the same noise. Been to my dealer and i am now waiting for a new ALTERNATOR and drive belt!!!! they told me it would be ok to drive, but am not so sure........ Does the noise also occur when slowing to almost stop in 2nd, then putting your foot down as if pulling away, always at around 1200rpm ...it's very odd..... and everyone thinks is drive a diesel too!!!
