    I replaced the drivers front wheel bearing and noise is still present. I noticed when i spin the tire in neutral i get a high pitch screech from in toward the transmission, on both sides. If i stick my head in the wheel well it sounds like its from in there somewhere, not the wheel bearing. If i jack both tires up and put in any gear and run it, i get the growl the faster i go the worse it gets, and in neutral i get the noise too when the wheel is spinning. In park with both off the ground and i spin it i dont get the noise. I have a ABS, trac off, Service Vehicle (not engine) Light, and i had E brake light that came on when you started driving but it stopped doing that, i think that was unrelated. The car has 213k miles and runs and shifts really good! I got a drop of fluid off the cap of the trans (sealed trans-no dipstick) as a sample and it didn't look to bad, so i think it was changed before. Let me know if anyone has any idea, because im clueless.

    if you got a odd2 bluetooth scanner like for a t app, this asb scanner app works with it. i have it it works. ChevroSys Scan Free (OBD2 & ELM327 for Chevrolet) - Apps on Google Play


    check the dust shields on the front brakes, they tend to get moved a bit and rub the rotor. only hear it when the wheels spin fast some times. i thought i had a bad hub and it ended up being the shield rubbing.
