There is a humming/roaring noise coming from under the car. Noise starts at about 30mph and gets a bit louder as you go faster. Making turns does not seem to make the noise any better or worse. I have recently changed the serpentine and timing belts. Tires are only about a year old.

Hi garthman83. Welcome to the forum. This noise is typical of a noisy front wheel bearing. When turning slightly, such as when changing lanes, does not affect it, your mechanic will have to run it in gear, on a hoist, and listen with a stethoscope to identify which one needs to be replaced.
