not sure on the rad, but for the wheel bearing : jack up a corner and place your hand on the 12 and 6 o'clock position and then wiggle it. if there is ANY movement then its up for replacement.

Wheel bearings will generally get louder when loaded up. Find yourself a quiet back street and do some low speed 'lane changes'. You could also find some tight corners that you can drive reasonably hard into. If that doesn't show up a particular corner then start looking at diff pinions
