So a new sound occured today,
If i drive around a sharp round about at high speeds my front left wheel sounds like a gearbox trying to engage a gear with no clutch, the grinding crunching sound,
Any suggestions on what to look at?

Wheel bearings, CV joints (mine made this sound right before it shat itself)... Can't really think of much else tbh.
