It could be something simple....but have the hub and bearings checked.....does the steering wheel vibrate when you drive? If so defiantly have those checked.....Sometimes it could be a nail in tire or a stone(that is the simple part)
if your car is front wheel drive it could be your cvs that go to the trans,do you have the orginal tires on it or did you put bigger ones ? didyou do any changes/ then this noise started.thats the best I can do without me looking at it.
It all depends where you live, the rate in ct is about 95.00 per hour and the time to replace a wheel bearing on this car is about two hours per side plus the parts and an aglinment,so it would cost about $400.00 in labor and the parts are not much, i would say for a good bearing about $30.00 and then the alignment which is about $69.99, you should shop around and try to get the best price. these bearings need to be pressed out and the new pressed in, heres a picture of the bearing , theres one on wheel, hope this is helpful.
With the car on ground, break loose the drive-axle nut, and the wheel nuts , than jack up the car, support it properly, remove the wheel ,remove the axle-nut.
Remove the brake caliper assembly-- support it properly.
Remove the two bolts that hold the hub bracket to the Macpherson strut assemble, remove the lower arm ball joint and remove the steering tie- rod ball-joint attached to the hub bracket. That's it.Slide off the hub /with the bracket off the drive-shaft.
Follow steps backwards to assemble back.
The front 'hub' bearing is 'pressed' out. You have to remove the steering knuckle from the vehicle and using a hydraulic press, replace the bearing by pressing out the old one and then pressing in the new one.
just to let you know the job is done
