Sounds like a bad cv joint or same thing [axle] find out where the sounds at[which side] drivers or passenger side. replace the axle that pops and cracks when you're driving and turning the wheel.if you're turning the wheel to left and moving, the popping comes from the left, you'll need the drivers side axle replaced, if you're driving and turn hard right and popping comes from passenger side front, then you'll need to replace the passengers side axle. it's common for either one to go bad. they always pop and crack during a turn while moving when bad....you can find either side axles at auto zone or advance auto parts stores. or even o'reillys or nappa auto parts. either way, they will be a rebuilt axle,just as good as new,just rebuilt. thank you for choosing fixya.com
Check your axles, for an open cv boot, this clicking is on straigth or turning, if turming to your rigth you hear noise to be louder on your left then your left axle is bad, do the same to your left and if noise exists then your rigth axle is bad.good luck
I just change the driver side cv axle.but now it leaking transmission fluid. From where the axle is what the problem?
Rock in tire orbent dust cover
SOURCE: Clicking noise coming from front driver side
A bad cv joint. Look under the car on the inside of the front wheel. There will be a shaft extending from the transaxle to the wheel hub with black rubber accordion boots on either end of it. Look for the boot for breaks or cracks. Look around the area for wheel bearing grease (very thick and sticky) to be splattered all over. Sometimes the boot is intact and the joint may still go bad but cv joint has an 8 hour life once the boot breaks. Replace the cv joint and boots. Buy a rebuilt one from your local parts store. They will be affordable and reliable.
