What is your question?
My car suddenly feels like a bearing is going out on the front left side. Every time it move the steering wheel slightly to the left I feel a low rumble under the driver side tire for a moment and it's louder at higher speeds. When I get underneath the car I see no shavings around the bearing, the rotor is fine, the brake caliber isnt rubbing against anything, I lifted the front of my car and the wheels feel really sturdy, and when I left go of the steering wheel when driving my car keeps going straight as an arrow. I had my transmission fluid changed a year ago and they said my transmission looks great. Nothing wrong with the front CV axles. I had to replace the driver rear CV axle recently because of an accident with a rock on the road. That's when I first noticed the rumbling and saw shaving around my rear differential. The gasket was leaking differential fluid so I had my fluid replaced along with the CV axle and gasket. I thought that was the cause of the noise but nothing changed
What makes this problem better or worse?
It's worse at higher speeds

What's stopping you from approaching the wheel bearing as a possible concern? If you have noise especially turning, I'd definitely focus my attention there.
