Guessing isn&#8217;t always the best approach which is about all anyone can do without looking at it and listening to it when it occurs. That being said there are some common reasons for a clicking noise. The most common reason for the clicking noise when turning would be the wheel bearings. Another common cause would be in the brakes. If it was a 4WD it could be a failing CV-joint or U-joint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/freeautomechanic.com\/auto-repair.html\">How to Diagnose a Noise<\/a><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-replace-wheel-bearing\">How to Replace Wheel Bearing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/>Suspension fasteners are critical components because they affect performance of vital components and systems and their failure may result in major service expense.
