Clicking noise front of car

Theres a clicking noise everytime I turn the car to the left or to the right. I can't seem to figure out what is wrong. It's coming from underneath the car.

Only when the car is moving?
Worse under power?
If so, probably CV joints.
Use search, it's your friend. Others have had similar problems.

I can hear it when the car is moving, but only hear the noise when i turn left or right. Only when im going 5-15 mph thats when i hear the noise when i turn the steering wheel.

Did it begin with the colder weather being here?

yes, it started last week when the weater got really cold.

Today I took my car to the dealership and they are not able to hear the clicking noise. However, I mention what about just leave the car outside in the cold for an hour then take a drive to hear the noise and still no clicking sounds. So next week im going leave the car at the dealer next Thursday over night and they will test out the car Friday mourning so they can hear that clicking sound that i can hear.

Nice Coincidence...

I took my 06 TL in just this evening to the dealer. They never even knew the problem existed!!!!!!

But yes, when I start up the car after not driving it for a few hours or in the morning and then i turn the wheel left just a bit, i will hear a clicking noise. seems to be coming right from the steering wheel.

Also, the colder the weather and if ur car hasn't moved for a while, the louder the click.

In Toronto Canada we're at about -5 to -10 now.

But when I got it in November when the weather was still a bit warm it didn't make the clicking noise.

So i guess it has to do with the weather because we took an 07 TL out for a spin and the same thing happened in the 07.
