Yesterday, I noticed a strange noise coming from somewhere in the left front of the car (95 SE MTX V6, 74k miles). Noise is pretty constant as long as the car is moving. It goes away when I turn the wheel to the right but stays when going straight or left.

The groan is something slightly louder than the engine's rumble. At first I thought it WAS the engine, but then I realized the noise is still there even with foot off gas, car rolling at speed in neutral, etc.

Any ideas? As far as I know, all the suspension/steering/etc. components are original. Car has 74k miles now, and I bought it at 50k. I'm currently trying to sell it, so I'd like to get this problem squared away.

Thanks in advance.
