It was me and having a few problems. Was looking forward to a good drive when an expensive noise came from engine. Managed to limp home and on investigation found CV joint on engine end of driveshaft had given way and dropped a bearing. Will replace and should be OK I hope. Well spotted as only on the road for 30mins
