Anyone got an owners manual for a wife?

Mine is giving off a terrible whining noise

Ooh. That can be serious. Especially if you try to mount a new tight end on it

I had a couple of models like that and both turned out to be beyond repair and both cost more to get rid of than it did for the initial outlay at pickup point

I find if you put enough red wine in them the Winning noise goes away and you seem to get a good purr and if you top it up till the top it stops altogether like it’s asleep

Timing belt might be about to let go, you should start thiking about getting a replacement. Possibly a newer model with lower miles...

Don't go for PCP, that doesn't work out...
