Default Squeeking from right front wheel

I have recently been having a problem with the right front wheel within the past few days. Its like a whirling/squeeking from that wheel only when i turn left and when im straightening out from a left turn. I think it makes a noise when im going fast but i only hear it when im going slow and the stereos off. I dont feel a shaking when im at high speeds. If anyone has an insight on what it may be let me know what it is and how to fix/check it.

Same problem here man....I think the front passenger side wheel bearing/hub is bad. Sounds very bad when turning left, hear it alittle while turning right, and alittle while driving straight at low speeds.

Does my 2000 ex coupe have hub assemblys?

I have a similar problem. More of a clicking/grinding when at certain speeds. Wheel bearing.

You can swap out the whole hub from with newer junkyard parts or have a shop replace them. My local shop priced it at $300 per side. (ouch.)

remove the spindle, get some bearings from the parts store (average 50 to 100 bucks), then take them to a machine shop and get them pressed for like 80 bucks. watch out if you use a pickle to remove the ball joints, 90% of the time ive had to do that ive had to replace the ball joint cus it tears the **** out of the boot. now take the extra 100+ and get your self some beer and a nice dinner, or more car parts if you like.

Start simple by checking whether the wheel splash guard is bent and rubbing on the brake rotor.
