2015 v60 R D3 Intermittent screech on acceleration

Hi all. Has anyone had this issue?
Sometimes either in second or third I get a screeching sound during acceleration.
Its when accelerating what I would say over the normal but not full pedal. Like going up a small incline. It appears to be the driver's side. I went the full hog a couple of weeks ago and had the cambelt and tensioner and aux belts changed including water pump just incase, it's done 77000 miles and always serviced. The noise is still there. I tried to record the sound but it wouldn't do it when I wanted it to. When it did it today the engine felt slightly bogged down while it made the noise and picked up when it stopped. But it was minimal. I wondered if it was a turbo leak or turbo bearings but it still goes well and I can't hear noise at any other engine speed or gear.
The noise reminds me of a Hornby model railway ringfield motor when the bushing is dry. Any ideas?
