Hi guys, I am driving a 05 picanto OPC. Mileage now reaching 65K. recently my car is making this noise when i drive about 40km/h, and the noise get louder the faster i go. Inside the car, it sound like aircraft going to take off when i hit 90km/h.
My friend say it is cause by the wheel bearing.. Can advise me where to get it check and how much would it cost?
Many Thanks..

other than noise, what other symptoms are there? Can't really differentiate the noise since picanto is already very noisy on road. lol

Shake wheels from top side in/out and feel any 'loose bolt' when car lifted. For rear bearing, replace hub is cheaper and safer than bearing alone. Front bearing require pressing, labour will be slightly higher.

Thanks for all the reply guys..
Another thing i observe, the sound is coming from the front left side. And whenever i make a high speed right corner, the sound is gone. And when i go straight again, the sound is back.
Steering wheel not shaky, feel as normal.
I call up harmony, Joey quote me $100 plus.
I am on a tight budget, anyone can advised how much they actually paid to get the wheel bearing replace?
Many thanks again.
