Clicking sound at low speeds turning the wheel in either direction- any solutions yet?
Been happening for some time now- year at least I think. Last time my car was in the shop my mechanic did not think it was anything to worry about. Just checking in, since it is annoying 
It only happens at low speeds, like parking, etc. It clicks several times during the course of the steering wheel travel, and happens in both directions. Just a loud clicking sound.
Thoughts? Been asking before, but no one seems to have a solution or know what exactly it was- at least last time I asked

it's funny you mention this. I've recently started hearing a faint clicking sound every time
I turn right very slowly. I think it's brake related but haven't taken the wheel off to take a look.

I have a similar sound, not yet resolved...>>>
Steve Schwing suggested it might be the dust shields on the rotors that were bent, but turns out not to be. I have this annoying low speed occurence when turning the wheel right or left that sounds like a spot of tar on the tires that makes a click sound for about 50 to 75 yards rolling then goes away. I can't figure it out! Tires shop inspected the car and came up with no suggestions.
