Every time I turn while pressing on the gas, the car makes a clicking/grinding noise (more so when I turn Right). When I am not on the gas, just coasting around a turn, there is no noise. What could this be? Let me know thank you.

Hi there,

You may have a faulty C.V joint in the drive shaft, check for a torn dust boot as this will allow the grease to empty out and the CV will start clicking under load ( when turning)

Thanks man, my buddy actually looked at it for me the other day and it is a torn cv boot, I ordered the parts so hopefully this solves the problem.
