Vauxhall Astra power noise

Car: Vauxhall Astra
Variant: 1.7 dti
Model Year: 2001

Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss

I currently got a vauxhall astra 1.7 astra dti. Recently the starter motor died and I paid to get it replaced and fitted since the car has come back the car makes a very loud buzzing/humming noise. It sounds like hair clippers but very loud. It happens when the cars neutral or when I'm driving. I've got an error code 1105. Not sure If this is to do with it. Also there seems to be a loss of power not sure if its cause of the noise. As when I'm on a motorway it's already making the noise. When I get to about 60mph it loses power if I'm going up a hill. I lose mph aprox 10 mph. And only kick back in when going down hill. Can anyone help pleaseeeee

if it was ok before starter was fitted then i would take it back to garage they must have disturbed a pipe or something while doing the job
