Sound when driving

Chevrolet Aveo 2008 Hatchback, manual 137000 miles
My car has an annoying sound as if something is warbling, I noticed I drove it without water then I thought that could have caused the sound but it kept on. I was told it's a bearing, we changed that still makes the sound , was told it's the break disc changed them, sound still there. Please advice as to wht could be wrong. Am failing to pick exactly where it's coming from.
