recently when i first start the car in the morning.. and its idling theres a funny sound coming from under the bonnet seems to be from the passenger side...
its a kinda low whining noise,like if a belts going round but is too tight..its the best i can explain it

Sounds like the clutch release bearings slightly noisy, if gear changes are fine i would'nt worry about it too much, unless its really annoying you the g/box will have to come out and a full clutch kit fitted. |

except it could be the box bearings!
Don't worry about it anyway, worry when it breaks |
