Drive slowly forward and backward while turning in a parking lot going through a wide range of motion.

Do you hear a clicking noise? If not chances are its not the cv and you should be checking the wheel bearings.

Will be waiting a reply!

Also jack up the wheel and feel for movement in the wheel, if noticed check bearings for endplay or ball joints. Even tie rods.
