The noise of a failing wheel bearing sounds like a brake caliper is sticking and leaving your brake on one wheel. I described it as a friction noise but I have heard it described as a whirling noise?

Remove 4 17mm bolts from back of wheel bearing hub assembly. You will need to turn the wheel the opposite direction to get them all

Gently work the old hub/bearing assembly out of the spindle
There is a magnetic ABS sensor inside the hub/bearing assmbly that feed through the spindle. Be careful to not break this part!
