What sort of noise? Is it when driving straight or when you turn corners? Could be a CV joint...

I recently had a problem with a noisy box ( like a droning noise or a wheel barin)but this lasted a while i chamged the oil but no differance, anyway one day on way to work i wasn't driving it to hard then in fourth gear it felt like it hit the limiter so i put it in fifth only for it to jam and not come back out so just watch what ur doin and take it easy untill u get it sorted.

You may get a good box on ebay.
