Just looking for some input...
When getting to 80-100km/hr, I am getting a loud humming noise from front
drives side wheel. First thought is wheel bearing. But when I turn steering
wheel slightly to the right, then the noise practically disappears, only to
return whenthe wheel is straighted again.
Could this still be the wheel bearing or is it possibly something else? |

I would bet that:
It's a wheel bearing, because a CV joint would get louder on a turn and
lick. A bearing would just hum, then as you turn, the load on the bearing
changes, and the noise quiets.
