Looking at all the pictures and reading about the construction of the front suspension pieces, I am still wondering what could be making the clicking noise in my front suspension. I've taken it to the dealer but they say it's normal. Maybe it is, maybe I'm crazy.

The jist of my issue is that when making a hard right or left turn (used to only be right, hence why I think it may be a worn suspension component), I hear a clicking noise coming from the outside wheel (presumably, could be either). It only becomes noticeable when beyond a certain degree of steering input is generated, as well as only at increases speed (increased load on suspension).

Do you guys have any thoughts on what this might be? I was thinking some sort of bearing in the suspension components, maybe wheel bearing. Maybe a ball joint that' worn, I don't know and the dealer says it is normal.
