sounds to me like the wheel bearing is a good starting point. Had a hum in the front of my '04 S40, changed the wheel bearings and problem solved. good luck

I'm not sure what the hub design is on your car. Mine had to be pressed out and in. If this is the case make sure you get new lock rings as you will probably destroy the old ones taking them out. If the entire hub onbolts then it is a simple swap.
