OK I have just been out for a drive turned off fan, air con and turned radio down to zero (it don't have a power button so i just turned it down to zero).

What I think I forgot to say In my first post is it doesnt make this sound when the engine is cold and only after the engine starts warming up, so like 5 mins into a drive or so depending on how cold it is. But it is always there after the engine has warmed up even when I am driving really gently like a granny.

Ok so back to what I was saying, I drove it for about 10 mins until it started making the sound, pulled off down a side road and parked. While idling in neutral I reved the engine to 2500rpm a few times with out experiencing the sound, did the same again with ac on and still nothing. Turned off ac and put it in first and with the clutch in reved it quickly to 2500rpm a couple of times then repeated with ac on.... no noise. Let the engine idle for a while then took off at granny pace slowly bring it up to 2500rpm in first gear and wam there it goes, into second then at 2500rpm it did it again, then again in third gear at 2500rpm. Turned down another side road droping down into second then was bringing it up to 2500rpm and at about 2250rpm
pushed the clutch in 100% and the engine reved past 2500rpm with out any noise.

So Basically I have a noise that is there when its in gear and being driven. So I have come to the conclusion that it is either the gearbox or a belt that is only slipping when the car is in gear and the revs are hitting 2500rpm.

Any help is appreciated in resoving this matter, its a really annoying thing that is happening... so annoying its making me dread driving my car around for a cruise as the thing that annoys me most is cars cruising past in town or something that are making strange noises... now it's my car making the strange moise. Sad
