1. How many miles are on the car??
2.Did you check the wheel bearings for excessive movement??(Both Sides!!)Allot of times a noise can travel and sound like it's on the opposite side!!
3. If you find excessive movement in the wheel bearings,Check the spindle Nut!! (If the nut is loose or not!) Remove the spindle shaft and apply a small amount of Anti-Seize or Wheel Bearing Grease evenly to the splines of the shaft and bearing,re-install shaft and torque nut to 155-165 Ft Lb's!! This will usually cure the problem!
4. If there is still excessive movement of bearing or the noise is still there,Replace Bearing!
PS Also,Check Brake pads for ware and movement front to back in caliper!
