My car is full of strange buzzing noises - I just ignore them until something actually dies...

Re: strange buzzing noise
If it's come on all of a sudden, check for signs of dual mass crank pulley failure, (rust / swarf in the general area).
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

Re: strange buzzing noise
You say "when the car's started"... Do you mean:
a) When the ignition is turned on? This will be the recirc flap and the vent selector mechanism starting up and working out where it is
b) When the engine's started? Could just be a bit of cold running vibration mixed with a worn engine mount
c) When the engine's running? Could be a hydraulic problem - when was the brake fluid last changed (including the clutch bled)? Could also be the DMF or clutch having issues - what other things affect the level/speed of vibration?
