Weird Wheel Sound...Normal or not?

Hi,

I recently notice that there's sound coming from my front wheel when I am turning left. I tested by driving in circle:

Left circle - High pitch screeching sound coming from front wheel.
Reverse w/ steering wheel turn to left - no sound
Right circle - no sound
Reverse w/ steering wheel turn to right - no sound.


I tested by doing 20 circles on each and only the forward left circle produce sound.

Anyone knows what might be the problem?
Wheel bearing? Normal sound due to brake dirt? Anyone got any similar experience?

I've heard that too. Only when making a slow U-turn with the wheel turned to the left all of the way.

I don't know what it is

Sounds pretty similar. I am trying to setup an appointment with the dealer..Probably will get it check on Friday. They don't open on weekends, and I can't just leave work anytime I want..
