Been there, done that!
It cost me around 2000$ to fix it. Had to change banana-arm, bearings (there are two on 930), handbrake cable etc.
That being said, it's quite easy to diagnose bad bearing. Just lift up one side of the car with OEM jack and turn the wheel by hand. You'll notice that wheel with bad bearing isn't turning smoothly. Carreras and SC's are much cheaper to fix as there is only one bearing. Probably DIY-job...
