Default GSR Noise

Just recently theres been a weird noise when im driving. and it coming from the front driverside wheel. sounds like my tire is wobbleling but it runs smooth just that theres that noise whether im going low speed or high speed. could this noise be wheel bearing? or axle? Anyone ever had this problem? any help would be appreciated,

Does the wobbling noise get louder as your speed increases?
Sounds like an early symptom of a bad wheel bearing.

Jack the front of the car up,
Put your hands on the 12 o clock and 6 o clock position of the tire and push against it to see if their is any play,
Then put your hands on the 9 o clock and 3 o clock position and do the same thing.

If their is play when you shake the wheel, then it's a wheel bearing, and must be changed ASAP, because a bad wheel bearing could also wear down the axle.

agreed, Easy was is checking like that, do the load test be going side to side putting a load on the bearing and off the bearing.

When you shake down the bearing if you feel the tire move, look at the axel if it moved w/ the wheel its you wheel bearing, Be careful though because a lower ball joint if worn enough can also move like a bad wheel bearing
