Might be your cv-joint http://www.motorvate.ca/mvp.php/401

"Quick Test: While moving very slowly with the window open, turn fully to the left or right. If you hear a "click-click-click-click-click" sound coming from your front, your CV are probally badly worn, and you should replace the entire CV shaft."

If that's the case, I hear that instead of just replacing the CV joint it may be easier to just replace the whole front axle. I think it's around $300 to fix. There are lots of threads around here on CV joints, you might want to look them up
