Default What's up. New to forum with a little problem

How are you all. I own a 1995 Camry Dx just hit 150,000 miles. The car is in great mechanical condition. I'm only having one problem when I turn the steering wheel and accelerate there is a very loud "clicking" type of sound. As long as I drive straight no noises at all. Only when turning. If this has happened to you or you know what is it I would highly appreciate an answer. Thank you in advance.

I would say that you have a bad CV axel.
Find an open space you can drive circles in, like an empty parking lot.
Drive in circles, both left and right and figure which side the clicking is coming from. It might help to have a friend stand outside of the car and listen as you circle.
There was a general rule that if it clicked when you turned a certain way then you knew which side was bad but I can't remember what that was off the top of my head.
Regardless, sounds like new CV axel(s) are the issue. You can also get under the car and look at the boots on the shafts for further confirmation. A torn boot will cause all the grease to get thrown out and dirt into the joint.
And, welcome to the forum!
