Evening all.
Among other irritating sounds coming from the dsg and cv boot. Above 60 mph when I accelerate I am getting a noise almost like there's a helicopter or chinook over head.
I'm also, getting a clicking / clunking occasionally when I pull away.
Its booked to go in the garage next week, but I've got about 1k miles to do before then.
Any ideas?

Driveshaft/CV badly worn. I'd not trust it to survive for another 1000 miles if the symptoms are that bad.
It is a fairly simple job to replace the driveshaft. I did mine in the driveway at home. Replacement driveshaft (long) for my DGS Shuttle was less than £150. If you need to use it, and you cannot change it yourself, find another garage.
