I've developed a strange humming sound coming from my car as it's rolling. The noise
increases the faster I go to up to 80 kms (50MPH)...at this speed the noise seems to level
off but not disappear. It's difficult to determine if the noise is coming from the front or
the back of the car. My 98 Contour has 78,000 kms (49,000 miles).

I can also feel a slight vibration in the steering wheel as well as from the pedals

The noise also changes slightly if I steer left or right of centre which leads me to believe
a wheel bearing may be the cause.

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem and what is the cost to replace a wheel
bearing and are they always replaced in pairs?

Thanks
