When i like over 30-40mph it makes a strange "whirling" noise coming from the front drivers side wheel. Only does it if i am at a constand speed or slowing down, when i accelerate its fine no problem at all.

I have changed the wheel bearing and its made no different :confused:

Help please i really annoying me now lol

Cheers

Brake disc warped/sticking?

Wierd how youve had the wheel bearing done, that would be what i'd say is causing it :s

clutch bearing? does it do it idle?

could be dependant on revs rather than speed

You should be ok if you packed it full of grease.

How long were you hearing the noise for? If it was a long time then,(LIKE I USED TO DO- I NEVER GOT THINGS CHECKED OUT!!!) you could have knacker ed the CV joint.

Just keep driving for a while, notice anymore noises get it checked rite away, i got a full driveshaft fitted for 90 quid.
