I have a 95' HB with the 1.6 V-Tec in it and ever since I got it it's had this roaring noise in it. It only does it when the wheels are moving and I have narrowed it down to the drivers side because when I turn right it stops and if I stop the driver's side tire from moving and the passenger side is moving independantly the noise stops as well. The faster I go the louder it gets. It pretty much sounds like an airplane.

I already replaced both CV axels, the drivers side was bad, I checked both of the wheel bearings and they are fine, but I am at a loss as to what else it could be. I have a feeling it's a bearing of some sort in the transmission but when it comes to transmissions I am lost.

Help?

This type of noise is usually caused by a bad wheel bearing, or tires that are cupped or feathered. If you are hearing the noise with the wheels off of the ground, and the noise is from the hub area(away from the trans) I would replace the bearing. It is possible the noise is from the transmission. You can put the car on jack stands, use a stethoscope to pinpoint the source of the noise.

I know its not the wheel bearing. I am willing to bet that its the transmission. But I don't know what part.
