CLICKING/POOPING NOISE, SPEEDS UP WITH ACCELERATION
FROM FRONT WHEELS. MOSTLY SEEMS ON PASSENGER SIDE. I REPLACED ROTORS AND PADS. NO DIFFERENCE.
WHEN I TURN WHEEL TO QUICK RIGHT, IT GOES AWAY, TILL TURNING WHEEL STRAIGHT NOISE COMES BACK.
TURNING LEFT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. NOISE ON LEFT TURNS AND WHEN GOING STRAIGHT.
IS THIS A CV OR WHEEL BEARING? HOW DO I TROUBLE SHOOT?
THANKS.

Drive slowly ina flat level surface with windows unrolled, slowly turn wheel left and right going forward and reverse, do you hear a clicking noise? If so its the cvs.

Jack up vehicle and spin each wheel and look for looseness in the wheel if so I would suspect a bearing issue.
