Default Car making clanking/clicking metal sound

Hoping to get some help. Not sure if it's a coincidence but I recently got new tires and an alignment on my 2013 Acura RDX. Weather is warming up so I've had my windows down and recently started hearing a metal clanging/clink sound. Can't figure out what it is.

Tends to happen when I'm driving at lower speeds. It's intermittent. Sometimes coming to a stop I'll hear or when I turn the wheel say to do a 3pt turn. I've looked under the car, can't seem to find anything. CV boots look fine.. bushings joints control arms and stuff seem ok. Other than my left shock leaking a bit I can't really tell. Check out my YouTube video.

So.. I found the issue. Stupid tire shop accidentally somehow left a wheel weight inside the tire. Smfh. Feel free to remove this thread moderator.
