Hearing some werid nosie

I notice a werid noise coming from the front of my 08 basic model honda fit at the driver side; nothing have been done to the car everything is stock. It only happen when I'm going downhill and it's make a whirling noise. I dont know what happen or what may have cause this problem. Does anyone know what might have cause the problem or an idea what it might be? Thanks for reading.

is that while ur driving downhill? Maybe your rim is loose, check to make sure all the lugnuts are tight. Also try doing a tire rotation and see if it's still making noise. If it's not, then it's the tire, if it is, then it's the front corner. Check to make sure ur brakes are fine and not worn out. If u ride ur brakes going downhilll, u might accidentally activate the ABS system as it is very sensitive and u might hear a whirring sound.

could be the wheels upfront are off balanced, take it to a local shop to get the wheels re balanced and it may solve your problem.
