Hi chaps,please be gentle with me as this is my first post!!
just bought a 2004(53 plate) 307 hdi 90 s,had it for 2 weeks and when slowing down it has a whining noise which starts about 2000 rpm in 3rd gear.Also the whine is in 2nd gear but not as noisy in 3rd.
When i press the clutch in the noise disappears.
Took it back to the dealers where bought and they said they done a gearbox oil change and the oil was clean(no metal).
Also they said the whining noise is common in 307 gearboxs of this age.
The Dealer is a well respected Peugeot Specialist
Please could one of you kind people advise me of the whining noise problem and if it is a common problem of whining gearboxs on 307's of this age
Many Thanks in advance

well i guess it depends on how loud the whine is but to be fair the transmission should be silent in my opinion, what sort of miles has it covered?

Thanks for the prompt reply,
its has done 54000 miles with full service history
The whine starts quietly,then gets quite loud,then tails off again

The Gearboxes in 307's and Citroen Xsara's are always quite noisey on the overrun, I have always noticed this. If you are coming from a different car, you would notice it I reckon.
The only way to be sure is to drive another and compare. Dont want to tell you its perfectly fine, but it could be if you see what I mean.

Cheers for the feedback Lighty
just how noisy are these gearboxes on the overrun as mine is really quite noisy in 3rd gear but only a small whine in second

All I can say is that some are annoyingly noisey, as I say you need to drive another really

Feedback on my problem if you are interested!
Took car to local Pug main dealer yesterday,Pug tech road tested with me in it and said the whining noise was normal for a 307
2.0 hdi 90 gearbox.Checked car on ramp for abnormal gearbox noise and everything ok.I guess i put myself at the mercy of the main dealers who could have said new gearbox,clutch etc but the car got the all clear so guess i'm happy
