   I have a similar problem to this. Noise is really quiet though, barely noticeable.
   
   My girlfriend had this problem really badly in her polo. Turned out one of the coils in the engine had gone affecting the emissions.

   more than likely the release bearing (thrust) but also the input bearing on the gearbox can cause a similar issue
