So I'm hearing a grinding/whining noise from the driver side rear wheel starting about 20-25mph. I'm pretty sure it's the wheel bearing since the noise doesn't change when coasting in neutral or when it's in gear. The only odd thing is that it grinds/squeals more if I turn left. It's actually reduced when I turn right, which seems odd since that would load up the driver's side wheel. Anything else I need to look for as a potential source? Fingers crossed it's not the output shaft.

EDIT- This noise is only after the car is warmed up.

EDIT AGAIN- Here's a video after the car is warmed up. Clutch in and down hill.

Does the noise change when you apply the brakes?

No, other than going away after getting below about 20mph.

Update: Seems like there is a pulsating whine when cruising.

Output shaft bearing will be completely dependent on speed alone. It should not change hardly at all when cornering, applying the brakes, clutch in/out, high or low revs. It's about the speed that the car is moving. It should increase in frequency/loudness the faster the car is moving.

Sounds like a wheel bearing.

This

Replaced rotors, brake lines, pads, and driver's side wheel bearing. Still making the same noise.

Again, it's a squeaking noise that sounds rotational. Clutch in or out at low speeds.

Can you post up a sound clip?

Gonna try to do that on Sunday.

You never said "squeaking noise."
