I went to a mechanic about some grumbling was told my front drivers side wheel bearing needed to be replaced, ($200 canadian)have yet to do this, the noise is very loud and just today I noticed a grinding with the front drivers side wheel when applying brakes, this then worsened so that even when driving slowly, with no brake pressure applied I still hear the grinding. Though it is noticebly less noisy, the noise is much worse when braking and follows the speed of the car. Could it be the wheel bearing making the grinding noise or is this a problem with the brakes, I dont have much money and would prefer to fix what I can my self, or fix what little I can at a shop for now, any advice?
