Whining noise on overun

[sheridan94]

hi guys

My S3 gone to the garage with its warranty booklet as the cars making a whining noise when on overun at about 70mph.

Any of you guys know what it could be?

The garage said it could be something with the haldex, diff or solenoid. And something my warranty will avoid paying out for at all costs

Any advice or info would be much appreciated
