Default 2002 accord noise???

Yo, this is my first time posting a thread here so imma try not to ramble.. here it goes.. My wife has a 2002 Honda Accord LX Sedan it has 115,000 miles she bought it in "02" from a Honda dealer that they used it as a loaner so it came with 30,000 miles already on it. Our problem is that when we drive it we hear a humming/whinning sound after 20mph. Apon checking online ive changed all that people have suggested, changed wheel bearings, front suspension, new breaks, ive changed all fluids... And after all that i still hear that damn noise could some one please point me into the right direction of what it is. Thank you.

The trouble with boards like this is we can't hear it from here. All we can do is offer suggestions for you to check out, for example if the sound isn't coming from the wheel bearing, then don't just change the wheel bearing "because we said so".

Your best bet is to narrow down the location of the sound - and that's difficult if it only happens when driving.

Shift into a different gear. Does the sound change with engine RPM or stay the same with road speed? Does the sound change when apply the brakes? Rotate your tires - does the sound move to a different corner of the car? As much as you can, check things out like that.

If it sounds like it's in back, have someone ride in the back seat to listen. Sounds in a moving car can be very misleading for their location.
