What could cause a popping noise in the front end of my car when I turn?

Yes definitely sounds like a CV joint you can buy recon/ rebuild kits from a good motor factor.

Check if the CV boot/ gator is intact and there hasn't been any grease lost.

If that's a no then jack up the front end and check for play in the wheel,

If there is then go around each part - Ball joint, Track rod end.

check for play whilst having a few fingers on the part and if that's the part that's faulty you will feel it.

if there is no play in them then the play is coming form the wheel bearing.

When at speed if the shaking happens when you brake then this could indicate a warped break disk

Id say CV joint thow.

I dont know how it works it the USA but in the uk a car would fail its MOT (inspection) with faulty parts like this

It is common knowledge that if you hit a small child or a porn star that the car will begin to shake a bit. I suggest you google how to clean it up so that you can fix this problem. If you look, and don't find the body sometimes your radiator will suck it up, sadly if this happens it will either lodge in your turbo if you have one and continue to spin resulting in a turbo leak so before you go drag racing a honda civic you might want to fix this. If it is not in your turbo it will be in cylinder 1 or 3.

The clicking is most likely the CV joints are bad. The rubber seal holds grease to keep them lubed. Over time, the boot will fail and the grease will come out. You can buy new boots and grease but it usually doesn't cost much more to just get new/refurbished CV joints.

It would be extremely helpful to know what kind of vehicle you're driving. Depending on what it is, the possibilities can vary.

Could be damaged steering gear, damaged ball joints, idler arms, tie rods, CV joint, etc.

You failed to provide the vehicle information YMM (year, make, model) this information is required to know what type of drive and the type of suspension set-up that is on the vehicle!

MMFH is right. It would likely be your CV Joints. They probly need replacing

if its front wheel drive possibly a bad drive axel, rear wheel drive u-joint possible

solution: go speed limit
