A bad front wheel bearing typically produces a grinding, humming, or roaring noise that intensifies with speed and may change when turning. In contrast, a bad CV joint often makes a clicking or popping sound, particularly noticeable when making sharp turns. While both issues can lead to noticeable noise while driving, the specific sounds and their contexts help differentiate between the two.
