Cv Axle Making Clicking Noise. The noise is either coming from the cv axle or the wheel bearing. But there are times when a noise coming from under the car can be a serious matter.

Symptoms of a bad cv axle shaft. Aside from the clicking noise, too much vibration while driving can be a symptom for a malfunctioning cv joint. The noise is fairly loud, especially when the car is making a sharp or fast turn.
When only on a slope, turning to the right at a very low speed or stationary (tight turn in my garage).
Usually they make a clicking sound when turning left or right but, if the socket is really dry and consequently, worn, then it could make a noise. Listen to the advice you were given. Bearings do not normally click, but i have seen it before. The cv axle shaft boot is probably torn, which then leaks grease.
