Mepzor-Front corner buzzing.
Hello,I have a 2007 LS 2.2 with 125,000 pretty care free miles on the clock. I am getting a buzzing noise at hi way speeds that seems to be coming from the left front that is quite loud. I shifted into neutral at 55 and the noise is still there so probably not drive train related.any suggestions? Ps I replaced the right brake rotor about 2 months ago.

Based on your description, it sounds like your hub is failing on that corner.
HHR's have some issues with hubs wearing out, and here's a nifty "How To" thread on replacing them yourself if you're so inclined.

I agree from you description it sounds like a wheel bearing making noise. A dignoitc trick to help confirm its a wheel bearing is when at cursing speed steer to the left then right ( small amounts) if the noise changes or go's away as the front end is loaded in one direction or the other you can pretty much bet its a front wheel bearing.
not a hard fix if you are mechanically inclined with tools
