VY SS progressively louder whining noise coming from back left wheel only around corners turning right ect big round-a-bouts. Have no idea what to check, done air pressure. Maybe tyres? Brakes? anyone else had this problem? Cheers

Taken the wheel off yet to take a proper look yourself?
Sounds like a bearing.

Jack it up.

Spin wheel & look at it from front/behind.

If chucking a wobbly buckled rim or wheel bearing or both.

Turning right puts load on the left rear - when the noise becomes louder that means its the left rear wheel bearing. If turning right makes the noise disappear, you've confirmed that its the LR wheel bearing. Happened to my vs around 12 months ago. Just changed the whole control arm as it was easier.
