Can you record the noise and post the link in here? Really hard to diagnose noises over the internet or without being there to pinpoint its location.

Does it sound like it is coming from the front or rear? AWD?

Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

If you veer from side to side does that change the pitch of the noise?
If it does, that would indicate a bad bearing...

Also look at the tread on your tires, if the tread is choppy, this will make a noise similar to a bad bearing...

You could also try rotating your tires to see if that "moves" the noise

If you have a bad bearing, you won't see any play in the wheel. Hub bearing don't do that.
