Evening folks

My 2.0tdi (150) manual Passat has started making a slight squealing noise when moving off in first gear. Doesn’t make this noise at any other time. No issues with the clutch slipping, or changing gear or feel in clutch pedal.

I’ll get it to the dealer but wondered if anyone can shed light onto its source? The sound is the same as in the linked clip
