Hello guys

My car makes noises like a cv axle is failing but a bit different.
This is only happening when I am turning fast and will using the gas pedal, or when I fall in a pothole.
That which is weird is that if it was a cv joint problem then I will be able to hear the clicking when the car is take of while the steering is left or right.
So I am thinking is it possible to need to replace my swaybar bushing or the endlinks?

What do you think guys?

I have replaced my left cv joint but it still doing this also the sound I think it comes form the left but not sure.

I have checked my wheels play and they seem pretty good I din't find something in my car that appear to be loose. The only thing I observed is that there is a small gab between the sway bar and the bush about 1mm or maybe 2mm.

I can hear the noise when I turn aggressive and step on the throttle the same time under left turns and it is most possible comes from the front left side of the car. I will also try to replicate the sound again with a co driver so he will confirm were the sound comes form, but I believe I am correct.

The noise is like clicking almost like a cv joint. I already changed my cv joint though at the left side and the right is fine since my mechanic checked it when I replace my tranny so all the cv joints are greased with new cv boots.

Is it possible to be the wheel bearing although there is no wheel play?
And if it's the left bearing then I think the noise of it would be present at right turns if I am not mistaken.
