2002 Cadillac SRX - STS Engine Size unknown Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 60,000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My 2002 STS Cadillac is making a noise like a whirring
from a fan motor (seems to be coming from front) ...Only does while car is in motion, and when you start to slow down or come to a stop the noise ceases...
It first started about a week ago
and begin like a hum from tires or road noise, now it has become much more noticeable and sounds more
like a buzz or whirring noise...

Thanks for any comments...

Being a newbie, I can't seem to navigate the reponse format, but thanks Buzzsaw and Joe
for your replies:
I took the car to the agency service dept. and they found the noise to be from :) the "front wheel hub bearing"...Problem corrected...
Thanks,
