Wheel bearing going bad? Options

[HectortheRican]

Today while driving with no music, I noticed a squeaking coming from the left front. At first I thought it might've been my motor, but the noise only happens when I'm rolling. Am I right to assume that my front driver side bearing is going bad?

Unfortunately it doesn't always show play at the wheel, sometimes the only way is to take the disc off and look at the flange for play and spin it to see if it makes noise (it shoudn't move in the slightest) I've had many bearing problems and they always seem to make the same noise unless they are seized.

Mine made noise the other night and I replaced it the next day, and it had marks on the flange of it wearing and I just caught it, sometimes you're better off with a new hub.

But best ways to determine is it will make more noise when one side has load on it, lift it up to see if the wheel has play, if it does It could be too late, if its minimal inspect the flange and if you can't fix it asap, take it easy on corners.
