Default Noisy Diesel ?

To be honest it doesn't seem noisy to me, but hubby has driven my car (2011 TDCi ) over the last week an he has commented that the engine is noisy when changing gears - it makes the rattly diesel noise but he says it's
louder than he thought it would
be for a sedan. I can hear it, but I just thought it was the noise diesels make ? It doesn't make the noise when driving normally but only when there are gear changes.

Does anyone else think thInk it's noisier than normal?

For one if its a 2011 model its a hatch not a sedan, and I find a hatch is more noisier than a sedan which they stop making sometime late 2008, pity again some people hearing are different than others assuming its not mechanical and a wagon may sound booming!!
