When I'm parked or going very slow and I turn my wheel I sometimes here a clicking sound coming from right in front of me. I can't tell if it's from under the hood or from the driver side wheel.

Any ideas?
I read once about the wheel barings making a noise.

 

Does it happen when stopped or only when moving? If it's only when moving then that's a classic bad CV joint noise. I don't think it's the wheel bearing, mine is bad and it's never made a noise like that. The wheel bearing is more of a growl/hum noise.

 

Turn the wheel all the way to each side and step on the gas a little. If you get the click click click.. your CV joints are shot.

A routine inspection for worne or broken boots would have caught the problem before it gets, or got in your case, expensive.

Every time I change my oil I inspect the drive shaft joints.

 

Do you have a lowered suspension? Is it more of a clicking or like a croaking (if that makes sense). My money would be on strut bearings before CV joints.

 

Actually I did a search and I think it's the strut bearing, cause if I keep the wheel turned and drive in a circle I don't hear it.
