Hyundai coupe accent, 1999. My front drivers side wheel bearing appears to need replacing, it makes a noise only when turing the car right, I have only noticed the problem within the last month. The MOT is booked for a weeks time, and I have a couple of long journeys to make in between (3-4hour drives), will driving the car before it's fixed cause any further damage?

That could be a wheel bearing but it sounds more like a CV axle that is going out.
