does the noice get louder as you go faster or changing from a clicking to a wizzing noice? happens when you turn the steering wheel to change direction?

could be the wheel bearing, mine was like this for ages sounding like it had a stone in a tyre but when it was jacked up to get the brakes and some other things done had the engine running and the hug was turning you could hear the bearing crunching. didnt collapse or anything withing the few months it was like it though. as they are pretty huge.

not too much. probaly 30-50 plus labour. thats how much i paid about 12 months ago. yeah you can still drive it. you'll probably just feel it through the steering wheel. get it sorted asap though.

Check underneath, see if a cv boot is off, i would guess then that it would be the beefed one...then again one might not be off, worth a try though mabye?
