A week or so ago, the car started making a clunk on right hand turns. It doesn't do it every time, however, the frequency and volume seems to have increased since the sound started. Sometimes, I can also hear a clunk when getting going. In other words, just as I start rolling forward with the clutch mostly engaged and *clunk*.
Also of note, the front/pass side wheel bearing had been making noise for a few months. I'm not certain about the timing, but the bearing noise seems to have stopped now.
I've been searching around and am coming up with conflicting answers. It seems that the noise could be the bearing, cv axle, ball joints, etc... Is there anything I can do to pinpoint the problem(s) without ripping the car apart?
EDIT: the car has 145k miles and pretty much everything up front, save the shocks, is original.
