Hi its not to big a job but need to have experience on working on cars. had a quick look online the CV joint kit is about £32 or the full driveshaft is about £51. replacing the full driveshaft is easier and quicker.

Driveshaft (CV Joint) needs replaced.

Ment to ask what car is this noise on?

If you go to car park and turning full lock in circles and while driving and it is CLICKING you deffinetly have a worn cv joint. should be worse in one direction this tells you what side needs replaced

ty. and when i do this how will i b able 2 confirm it ?

Sounds like u have a worn driveshaft(cv joint)thats what's making the clicking. take to an empty car park and try tight turning circles and roll down the window to listen from outside. that should confirm CV joint worn
