My car makes a clicking noise sometimes on acceleration and deceleration and when starting.

Is it just a single click each time you accelerate or decelerate, or constant clicking?

Reviving this because I am having a similar issue. Its a single click when accelerating or decelerating, Regardless of gear. It sounds like it comes from the front and sometimes rear right wheels. Im assuming its either some slop in the axle somewhere but I have yet to jack the car up and actually check. I’ll see if I can get an audio clip tomorrow.
