worn or bad wheel bearings will make noise (grinding, humming, etc)
If you hear a noise you suspect is a bad wheel bearing try this. While driving slowly turn the wheel sharply to the left. If the noise goes away your left front wheel bearing is bad. Now, turn sharply to the right. If the noise goes away you right front wheel bearing is bad. The only 100% sure fire way to know for sure is to remove the wheel bearing and inspect it.

You will hear a grinding noise. Driving down the road turn the steering wheel sharply to the left and if the noise goes away the left front wheel bearing is bad. Turn the wheel sharply to the right and if the noise goes away the right front wheel bearing is bad. Be careful and do not turn the wheel too sharply or you may loose control. Or you can simply jack up the front wheels and spin them with your hand. You can easily hear a bad bearing.

Hi, I just had a left front wheel bearing replaced on my '02 Silhouette. Symptoms that the part needed to be replaced include: --Whirring noise coming from faulty bearing while driving --Noise increases when turning steering wheel to opposite side of bad bearing (e.g., moving wheel to right with a bad left bearing) --No noise while vehicle is stopped Parts could cost up to $250 depending where it's purchased and who manufactured it. Labor is about 2 hours since wheel and disk brakes have to be removed and re-installed. Hope this helps
