Default 2009 wrx, wheel bearing issue

hey guys,

just wanted to get some input, i drive a 2009 wrx sedan the past couple of weeks i have been noticing a louder road noise from my car but at first i didnt think anything of it but then started to think it never use to be this loud, i then got it serviced today at my local and the guy said there is a little bit of wheel bearing noise coming from the front left,

i just wanted to see other peoples input because the car only has 70,000 kms on it and it seems a bit dodgy that one of them need replacing, could it be caused from entering my drive way curb to fast?, as its the same corner of the car that i enter the drive with (front left)

cheers

Bearings wear out. If nothing obvious is causing it (i.e. factory wheels, no spacers, alignment issues etc..), just get it replaced.

After 70k kms, your driveway is perhaps negligible.
