Wheel bearing or wishbone?

I've got a droning noise coming from what sounds like the front nearside wheel. I've given it a good push and pull, and there doesn't seem to be any play in it, however the wishbone is pretty shot, so was wondering if this would cause the noise, or if in fact it is the wheel bearing.

Have you checked the other wheels? The chassis on these cars are so rigid, they can transfer sound around.

Checked both n/s wheels, will try the o/s ones.

[QUOTE=V70 Graham;527599]Make sure you polybush the new ones :D[/QUOTE] Apparently you can't, as C70 has specific C70 wishbones i.e. not shared with 850/ V70 P1. :(
