How loud is it? Really loud or just percievable?

Very unlikey that you will get any turbo whine as you set off, unless you do it at 2,500 rpm plus, as the turbo is hardly spinning. If you get a 'squeal' just as you let the clutch up and put the power on it's more than likely the clutch release bearing. Will go on like that for a long time, probably (my BX TD went like that for about 30,000 miles, and was still going when I sold it at 136,000).

Is it illogical? It must be Citroen....
