It is more evident when I start up the car and steer the wheels. I am pretty sure it is not axle because the sound is not coming from underneath but rather from the direction of instrument panels.
Does anybody have any idea? Thanks!

its normal. you should have several click sounds when u turn the wheel, how many clicks depends on how far you turned the wheel.

Clicking from front wheel area when turning usually indicates worn CV joints.

Check your lower ball joints. Looks like it's time to replace them before they break on you. I had a lex gs400 and it had clicking sound every time I turn the wheel or sometime when it goes over bumpy road. Unfortunately, my wife drove the car one day and the lower ball joint on the driver side broke off. It f*** up the whole driver side, front suspension, fender, door couldn't open, rocker panel....man the list goes on. Insurance company totalled it.
SO, check your lower ball joint and replace them when you get a chance.

does it only click when u turn the wheel and the turn signal is on? or at any time? sound is comming from the inside or outside of the car.

are you stopped and turning the wheels- thats hard on the pump and rack!

are you moving forward slowly with the wheel cranked full- click click click
thats cv
there is a cv bearing at the trans end of each shaft too, so it can sound like dash

pretty sure it is not CV joints, because i had it before.
when CV goes bust, clicking comes only during acceleration. Juust turning the wheel during stop will not click.

i think it comes no matter turn signal is on or off. it is definitely coming from inside.

i know i usually avoid turning the wheel when stopped, but as you know, sometimes it is necessary.
the sound comes when stopped or moving i dont believe it is CV, if it is CV, then it sounds only during when I am accelerating not cruising.
