My pass. Side cv boot is wide open(needs replaced). I put new rotors, pads(both sides). Lower control arm and ball joint on driver side. Since then I have a hum that neither decreases or increases with vehicle speed. Also, the hum stops if I turn to the right and remains constant if I turn to the left.

You'll find that the left front has the bearing problem, So it looks like both sides need work again. CV joint will click when enough grease is lost, and enough dirt packs into it.
