A jet engine type of noise from the engine area usually means the fan clutch is going bad. I don't think the tach is related to this, that could be the stepper motor for the tach going bad.
Good Morning. What this sounds like is the exact diagnosing of a front hub assembly really not that pricey either, and a common problem. Last one I did a few days ago even with the noise calming down going the other way ended up being both hubs. I hope this helps and if you have any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks, Joey
3 suggestions for you, you may need to check the tire pressure, get a tire alligment done, or you have a bad wheel bearing, usally a bad wheel bearing make's a loud roaring sound going down the road. I hope I have helped you.
It really sounds like a wheel bearing to me, If you drive down a straight smooth road and gently rock the steering wheel back and forth, you can sometimes tell which side it is by the way the car loads the front wheels. I believe this bearing can be purchased as hub and bearing assembly so it is fairly easy to replace but the part is pricey. Remove the wheel, brake caliper and rotor, look through the hub flange access holes and undo the mounting bolts and pull the bearing assembly out of the knuckle.
Check your hub spindle(wheel bearings), I had to replace both mine at 70,000 miles, started making this roaring sound and we thought it was the tires. There is no way to grease the bearings, it's a complete sealed part that just wears out, easy to replace.
