I'm going to try and shoot a video when I can just for reference sake, but here is the best description I have.
When in first gear - If you steadily increase speed (rolling speed, not just engine speed - ie not just RPMs at a stand still), you can hear a subtle "whine". This is greatly augmented if you depress the clutch and leave 1st gear engaged while the car is still in motion.
Often when I experience this I am in first gear + accelerating and for some reason (usually traffic), need to return to neutral. I depress the clutch. In that instance, before I remove the car from 1st gear and return it to neutral - a "run-run-run-run-runnnn" in a whining fashion is herd....... That's my best attempt at describing what I hear.
Its isn't crazy loud, and you can't here it with the windows down or decent music playing BUT its there.
