1.5 tdci strange noise

Hello everyone, 

 

I have a 1.5 TDCI Econetic Mondeo mk5 2015 year. My car has developed a strange sound just above the biting point of the clutch when there is a load on the car (incline or heavy). It's almost like chewbacca is in my car. If you give it more revs and release the clutch it fine.

The only other way I can replicate the noise is to put my foot on the brake pedal and then slowly release the clutch just above biting point. See dropbox link below:

Does anybody have any thoughts? 

Thank you for your help.

    Hmm, not sure if this is relevant but I have the same 1.5 econetic and I get a similar sound occasionally when pulling away on an incline when the brake is being held by the hill start assist. Could it be related? Mine only lasts a second too.

    Do you know how much would it cost to repair it? Approximately? Thanks

    You'd need to consult a garage for cost of which would then depend on what they found that needed doing when it was dismantled.
