I have a 04 grand prix and I am getting a grinding nose from the right front. If I turn to the right it stops. Dose this sound like a bearing to you.

Could very well be a bearing do you have a floor jack and jack stand's if so I can tell you how to check the front wheel bearing's.

Yes I do. I did jack it up but had no play when I tried to wiggle it. And when it is jacked up I can run it and get it up to 40 mph and no noise.

The way I want you to check it is to have it jacked up put the transmission in neautral. Put one hand on the front coil spring use the other hand to spin the tire as fast as you can. If you have a bad bearing you should be able to feel it in the spring. Compare the right to left.
