Default Click & pops while turning

When the car is moving at a very slow speed, I can hear clicks & pops from my passenger side wheel area. It occurs when turning both left & right. I checked my CV boots, all is well. It still may be the axles, but I was also thinking/hoping for the problem to be the tie rods.

Do you guys have any suggestions or ideas on what it may be?

Model is in my signature.

A motor or transmission mount will act up when there is large amounts of torque being put on them from the engine or tranny. As of right now, my issue actually only occurs at speeds of around 1-2mph, and about idle RPM speeds. I am guessing that its going to become more and more frequent & will occur at higher speeds as time goes on; that is why I want to get this taken care of.

Good luck with your issue, FunnyVictor.

Hopefully someone with a similar issue or some experience in this field can send me in the right direction.

i am having sort of the same problem in my cd5 and i found out it is my lower ball joint. i thought it was the rack and pinion. so you might want to check the lower ball joint.

id check ur boot very well bc i had that problem and my boot looked fine so i took my wheel off and there was a bunch of grease around the inside of my wheel come to find out there was a small whole in my boot which over time dried it up and made a grinding noise while turning and slower speeds

ummm, he already checked them out...

ball joints on suspension as well as the steering rack ball joints may be the culprits...
