Well the noise went away and all was fine for two weeks. Today I heard a screetching noise, the temp light came on almost immediately and then the engine shut down. I topped up the water reservoir after letting everything cool down, and the engine runs but the screetching is still there. There is also water dripping under the engine, so it sounds like the water pump has gone.
Just goes to show that if you hear an unusual noise, there is usually something about to fail!
Tow truck is on the way!
