Why is my Vauxhall Astra making a whirring noise?

I have noticed that my Vauxhall Astra is making a loud whirring noise when I accelerate. It seems to be coming from the front of the car. What could be causing this and should I be concerned?

It is likely that the whirring noise is coming from your wheel bearings. This can be a common issue with Vauxhall Astras and should be addressed immediately.

Check your serpentine belt and pulleys. If they are worn or damaged, they can also cause a whirring noise.
