2006 volvo s40 t5 road noise
I've been hearing a noise that seems to be coming from the front end of my car but the noise clears out when I turn right. I replaced both bearings, cv shaft, struts and strut mouts and the noise is still there. Any ideas.

Have you tried a front to rear tire rotation to see if the noise changes? Is it a whine or a clunk type noise (clunks could be sway bar end links or a control arm). Other than that, I'd be looking at various mounts (motor, trans, steering rack etc). Also have you checked the brakes (can't say why this would vary with turns - that points me to the parts you've replaced... hate to think you got a bad part)

curious if the noise could actually be a rear wheel bearing vs front? As a quick check you could jack up the rear wheels and hand spin to see if you can hear/feel and difference left to right. I've been fooled a few times thinking noises were front or rear - but that could just be me :-)
