Im not sure if the sound is from the wheel bearing, but my car is making a weird sound when I accelerate.It sounds like a dying cat. Or a little bird whistling.

Just got the price tag on my back right wheel bearing, $475. It sounds like a loud vibration/rubbing sound, very noisy. At first I thought my muffler was going bad.

Why does your 89 Pontiac Firebird sound like a jet engine when driving but not when idle Do you think you have a bad wheel bearing?

A bad wheel bearing does not sound like a jet engine. It is more of a grinding noise. If you only hear this during acceleration, I would suspect your breather intake is loose or disconnected. Unload the bearings by swerving right and left. If the noise disappears then you may indeed have a bad bearing. In other words if you swerve right and the noise disappears, suspect a bad right wheel bearing, etc.
