Is it a bearing or the cv-joint that makes a loud humming sound in the front end when driving at any speed?

check hubs and c/v axles

possible cv joint failure

Sounds like it could be the CV joints, drive the car in reverse for a little and put steering on full lock, the noise will be a crunching sound coming from the front, if so then ist definitely the CV joint(constant velocity) joint, hope this helps

big chance it is your wheel barings ,,

or cv joint shaft ..

Try jacking the vehicle up and testing. If noise still present then possible wheel bearing failure.

Most likely it is the RH front wheel bearings. CV Joints don't usually make any noise until you turn a rather sharp corner. I would advise you to replace the bearings and seals in both front wheels if the bearings are in fact noisy. Jack up the front and spin each wheel, you'll soon hear the sound of rumbling bearings.

Better check CV joints. No vibration on higher speeds?

Is it a clicking sound ??
Does it do it more on turns & accelarating ??
Could be a cv joint..
Check the cv boots for sepration, splits, cracks ect..
Could also be a wheel bearing..

Hope this helps !!
rrateme good ;o)

COULD BE THE WHEEL BEARING WORN. JACK THE WHEEL UP AND MOVE FROM SIDE TO SIDE LOOKING FOR EXCESSIVE PLAY AND SPIN THE WHEEL CHECKING FOR ROUGHNESS OR TIGHTNESS IF YOU HAVE THIS ITS THE WHEEL BEARING.....IF IT IS MORE LIKE A CLICKING OR KNOCKING NOISE WHEN DRIVING IT WILL BE A CV JOINT.TO TEST, DRIVE AT SLOW SPEED ON FULL LOCK AND YOU WILL HEAR IT.....IF THE SOUND IS COMING FROM THE ENGINE IT WILL BE ONE OF THE PULLEYS,(TENSIONER OR WATER PUMP) BUT IF IT IS THAT, YOU SHOULD STILL HEAR THE NOISE WHEN YOUR STOPPED (REV THE ENGINE A LITTLE) AND IF THERE IS NO NOISE ITS NOT COMING FROM YOUR ENGINE THEN......HOPE I WAS OF SOME HELP TO YOU..HAVE A NICE DAY.!!!!

sound like the lhand cv has lost all its grease and needs replacing i am 99% sure of this the retaining nut could also be loose
