Thumbs up 95' Accord question

Feel free to move this to car talk if that's more appropriate

Can anyone take a stab at why a 95' accord would make a repeated metallic click when making a right turn? It seemed to be coming from the area of the drivers side wheel.

Thinking it maybe something CV related but really not sure at this point.

Interested in possible suggestions. Looking at beaters right now and trying to narrow down any mechanical difficulties.

Thanks!

It is and moving.

Most likely your CV joint. Inspect the boot to see if you've lost any grease. Even if you have an intact CV boot, the CV can still be hooped.

I agree, CV boot busted, grease all over the place. 99% it's outer one too, the one nearest the wheel.

Hooped = busted, shot, caput, blown, wrecked, 'ed, damaged, no good, crappola, screwed, tits up and generally in need of repair or replacement.
