it could be the hub, mind went out on my truck and it was LOUD! take the wheel off and brakes and see if it still makes the noise... mine made it all the time though but my truck is quiet so i could hear it a lot better, iunno how loud your car is... just something to check.

If its the hub, another way to check is to jack the car up till the wheel is just a few inches off the ground, then use a pry bar to pry a little motion on the wheel. use the pry bar perpendicular to the car and parallel to the ground, If the hub is bad then you should get some movement
