I just had axle and tie rods replaced. My car makes a noise like popping, knocking or clanking type of noise whenever I turn. It is worse when I turn left. The slower I turn the less noise it makes. You can hear the moise when you turn the sterring wheel both while driving and when the car isn't running and you turn the steering wheel.

There is obviously a problem with the job done and you need to bring it back to him for inspection to determine what. Don't wait. They may have left something loose, like the axle nut.
