Same problem on my Jimny 2019. It was repaired under warranty, but returned later with minor intensity. Problem was transfer case chain

I also have it.

Sounds more like a heavy mechanical whine.

I have a reasonably steep driveway and hear it when I drive up in first gear. The sound is harder when I give it more petrol...

So 6 weeks later, the parts have finally arrived. Dropped off the Jimny yesterday. Will get it back in 4 days time.

I'll update once I get it back.

So. It’s been 4 days and about 200km of stop start driving around town.

All quiet. In fact driving in general is much quieter and smoother. The transfer chain was clearly making more noise than just the grrr sound at take off.

No oil leeks. (I see Suzuki shipped a plug and nut as part of the repair kit).

Attached is a copy of the workshop repair doc and parts list.

Touch wood this is the end.
