OK
for anyone in future who listens to the growel in the link above I can tell you it was the front offside wheel bearing.
I took the car to a Peugeot/ Mercedes garage, we put it up on a ramp a ... |

I'm still having problems with the growel to the car.
I've placed a camera under the car. With the front offside wheel off the floor I change through the box up to 30mph. You can hear the growel best ... |

Well I've changed the inner track rod, and had the wheels aligned. Still the same problem. It weems worse at 50mph and then dies off a bit at 70. This could be that the added wind noise means its less ... |

I had a response from Avon. They have asked me to return the tyres if I think they are faulty and they will check them.
They also suggest that it might be an alignment issue or suspension that is on ... |

Thanks for the replies gents. I'm still a bit stumped as to the problem. I've been in touch with Avon and I'm waiting a reply. From what you say about using Avons it looks like my problem must be else ... |

Well, Following a friends advice I tried swapping the rear wheels with the front to see if it was a tyre issue with one of the front tyres. Three of the tyres on the car are Avon ZT5 and the other is ... |

I've now replaced the drive shaft on the nearside. This has made the most difference. the car steers much better and the steering is not so heavy as before. There is no rumble now just what can only b ... |

Ok. Here's the latest. Jacked the car up on the near side- engaged 1st gear and let it run. Brake pads were catching on the disc and there was a rumble. Stopped the engine and grabbed the wheel. It ro ... |

Thanks for responding. I'm going to give it a go over again tomorrow. It soundslike a bearing and I was thinking of the intermediate shaft bearing as its something I haven't checked yet.
Brake pads a ... |

When I got the car the front nearside wheel bearing had failed. I replaced it and my daughter drove the car for 3000 miles. When she returned home I checked the car and the bearing had gone again. Rep ... |
