hollow noise

[pneuma3]

Hi all I feel like this guy

I have a 99 standard Saturn and about a month ago it started to make a hollow noise which has gotten louder.

It does not make this noise in neutral only when I am driving down the road and levels out in 5th gear as a hollow noise.

As I am to fat to fit under the car as the wife drives it down the road in order to get a better idea where the noise is coming from I thought I would ask some of you guys here what you think it might be.

Hi all the noise is comming from the front of the car up by my feet if that helps.

I think everyone is pretty much clueless.

Driving today I noticed if I was driving straight the noise stayed at a constant level, if I went around a corner to the left it seemed to get a little louder, and if to the right the noise disappeared, so it would seem to be something tied to the steering of the vehicle.

I could fix this problem if I just drove around in circles to the right but I get dizzy to fast and only end back where I started.
