    160SR vibration at 2500rpm...is this normal?

    I had a problem identical to this, although mine is only a 2004 1.0 5dr, after several weeks of grey hair pulling and swearing... Look into your spare wheel well in the boot, and the jack should be resting in a little groove on the floor next to the wheel There should be a 'rubber band'...

    Have bearings gone??

    if the noise increases/decreases in proportion to your speed, its most likely a bearing.... but the tire wear suggests a suspension problem? was the work tire previously on the front, then the car got tracked, and the dodgey tire was moved to the rear? thats the case with my car anyhow...
