Front Wheel Issues and more

I need help folks!

Every time i got to make a turn, i hear this rattling sound coming from my front tires. Is the boot gone bad or what? Plus my gas tank indicator would work and the clock in my car goes on and off at will (mostly off though).

Any help?

Clicking on turns is probably your CV joints (not just the boot). Clock turning off and on is probably a short somewhere.

I had the same problem, I changed the joints, and ... problem solved, though I had only one side clicking, but I decided to change both, I advice to do so. But first to make sure it is the joints, try turning while the gears on the nutral position, if there is no sound then it is the joint. good luck.
