It won't make any noise when you are stopped, but it will when you start going? Reason I ask those two questions is that if you answer yes to both of those, then it has to be the wheel bearings. I just replaced mine because of similar circumstances, and it was my passenger side wheel bearing. When I turned to the right, the noise would get louder, noticably.

Same here. Any dummy lights? I had SVS, Track Off and ABS light on everytime at the end. To see which one it is, lift the car up, put it in neutral, put a hand on the spring and roll the wheel. that way you can feel if its rubbing badly.

Its relatively an easy repair if you have the right tools. I don't, so I went at a friend's place and got it out. It takes like 30 minutes with an impact gun. too bad the freaking hub cost a lot.

Changed it last week and now the other one is starting to claim for a change, but no lights this time.
