re. Front end noise

[ben swann]

After doing the front brakes on mine yesterday and finding the abysmal
state of the rotors, I am now suspecting that over bearings, or at
least a major contributor to the noise.

[Mine is making a noise when applying power  - sounds related to wheel
speed.  No sound when coasting. CV joint was my first thought but it
checks out good. I would think wheel bearing or tire would always make
the noise. Noisevery noticeable at freeway speeds. Occasional vibration
in the steering wheel also. Any ideas?
