Did it have the 'noise' when you bought it and roughly how many miles have you done in it with the 'noise' please?
I bought the car on 56750 and thinking back it definitely had the bearing noise, I just didn't realise and thought it was a Jazz thing. Serves me right for not checking common faults first. I've done approximately 9500 miles in the car since I bought it and it's been there the whole time, never given me too much cause for concern and never seemed to worsen or anything.
I don't believe mine makes too much whining in first or third - It does make some but it's only noticeable in first and even then not as much as second/fourth. Fifth has a little bit too.
