as we cannot hear it have this checked locally because it could be an engine or something caught like a shield causing this.

If the popping noise happens when you go forward or backward with the wheels turned in one direction or the other, then the likely problem is worn CV axle joints ("CV joints" for short).
However, if this is not the case, the best move is to have the vehicle inspected at a shop which will conduct free suspension/alignment checks (call shops in your area to see if they conduct free checks). This way they can actually hear the noise which will then guide them in to the area of concern.
