adey is an unknown quantity at this point
I get a high pitched metallic "whine" occasionally when I'm going at slow speeds (up to about 45mph) from my front driver's side wheel well... also coming from this wheel well is a 'grinding' or 'scraping' noise under moderate braking.

At first, I thought this might be my brakes, but now, i'm led to believe that it's more likely to be my wheel bearings.
Is there any way I can check, and if possible fix, this at home using basic hand tools?

Or is it probably just my brakes? I don't seem to feel anything out of the ordinary when I brake hard, although the sound is somewhat worrying.
