Weird sound coming from passenger side

I was hoping someone would know what this sound is(video attached) it’s not the engine or tranny, In the video the car is turned off and is coasting in neutral , so it’s something with the suspension.

Man all I can hear is wind noise and a Peacock? Maybe another with the window up?

Could be something as simple as a piece of debris in a dustshield or brake area, a bent dustshield or maybe a wheel bearing. I hear a cricket chirping sound for sure.

I've noticed that the chirping sound gets faster as im accelerating, and slower when decelerating, would that be the wheel bearing?

That means its rotational and not engine speed. If you are good with tools take off the front wheel and visually inspect for a rock or debris and then repeat with the rear wheel on the passenger side. If you are uncomfortable with this ask around for a good recommendation for a mechanic to look it over.

Maybe a bad wheel bearing. I just replaced my because of the same problem. Different sound from mine but the same rotational type of noise. Does the sound speed vary with the speed if the car? If so, I’d bet money on the wheel bearing

Actually sounds like a belt squealing/slipping to me. Might want to check your belt and pulleys/tensioner.

Thanks for all the suggestions, did some digging around and found that the dustshield had become detached and was rubbing on the passenger side. No more noise!
