Can't Locate a Noise

I've got a 2001 9-3 that's got a noise from the right front. It's a rhythmic thumping noise, just like a worn wheel bearing. But, the wheel bearing was replaced about 10,000 miles ago, and it's also got new tires, so I don't think it's a cupped tire.
It was in the shop for some other work, and they can't what's causing the noise. They said they'd rather not just replace parts and hope they replace the right one, since that would be pretty costly.
Anyone have any ideas what it might be? It's speed sensitive (faster sound as I drive faster). Also, it seems to be a bit quieter in left turns and louder in right turns (it comes from the right front, so this is why I thought it's the wheel bearing).
TIA
Roger
