I HAVE A 2002 PONTIAC GRAND AM GT. WHEN I DRIVE STRAIGHT AT HIGH SPEEDS THE CAR MAKES A LOUD NOISE ON WHAT SEEMS LIKE THE DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL. IT GETS WORSE AS I TURN TO THE LEFT, BUT DISSAPPEARS WHEN I TURN RIGHT. TODAY I REPLACED THE ROTORS AND BREAK PADS ON BOTH SIDES AND PUT A NEW HUB,BEARINGS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. NOISE STILL PERSISTS CAN YOU HELP ME?

Move drivers side tire to rear and see if noise follows.

I moved the tires around and the same noise persisted didnt get any better. The CV joint has no play init either so tomorrow im going to replace the right front bearing and hub, but the noise is still coming from the front drivers side wheel.

Hub bearing would be a good idea.
