That doesn't sound healthy! It's definitely the gearbox, a few VDL Pulsars make a weird humming noise as they accelerate so at a guess it's a DAF thing!
@liverpoolkidreece I don't know the fleet number, I imagine it may be as S290JUA I think is 4160, but then again I also rode on S259JUA and have a video of it to post soon. Listen to the video from 7 minutes til the end, that is the best part on this!

Hey, Our buses are highly maintained in tip-top condition.. Its rare in London that buses would sound like this especially coming from a DAF. According to some people DAF chassis are reliable...
