Ok...
Is the noise a clicking noise?? Yes CV's. Not cheap.
Is it more when turning the car and powering on? This could also be CV's.
Is the noise more when in 4wd than 2wd?? Could be draglink bushes, tie rod ends, or caster bushes. Not too bad.
Or could be the tie rod ends,expensive
Wheel bearings too.
Have you checked anything yet? Or discounted anythign out of what it could be?
Lots of things in the steering/front end there that it could be.
Little more info on when, where and how it happens.
