"buzzing" sound from front end?

[redspire]

So recently my car has developed a buzzing sound from the front end. I think I've pinpointed it to the front passenger side tire area. I can start hearing it pretty distinctly at about 35 mph and then it gets louder. I thought maybe it was transmission related but when i take it out of gear and coast its still there...any ideas from anybody?

Check the plastic inner fender. Maybe that is loose, or possibly the alternator fan is just barely touching the alternator housing.

Wheel bearing.

Yeah its more of a really loud road noise. I was thinking wheel bearing too.

Wheel bearing. Very common on these little cars.

Try moderate turns at speed to briefly put more load onto the suspect side (right side as you describe it). The noise should get lounder during your left turn and quieter during your right turn. This will confirm that it's a wheel bearing.
