Chirping sound right front wheel

On a 2005 LWB 3.8 GLS I have a chirping sound coming from the right front wheel when:

1. Speed is above 40km/h,
2. Brakes is not applied.

Sound goes away when I turn left or apply brakes. Driving on a corrugated road it disappears completely. Brakes are fine, disc pads are fine.

I do not have any shuddering on braking with no other noises.

I hope it's not the inner shaft bearing

Thanx Marius I will have a look. Had that bearing fail on my Gen2 and the noise and vibration was completely unbelievable. With this noise I just have to touch the brake lightly and it dissapears

Is the noise coming from inside the cabin?

If so maybe check out my problem and eventual solution where it was the ABS "ring" that was faulty.

Noise is from outside. Close the window and you do not hear it. Will not hurt to check this though
