2nd on the CV...
Check the boot, chances are it's torn and has been for some time.
If you are lucky, it may be enough to clean the joint, re-pack with grease and put a new boot.
I just had both front CVs rebuilt at a local driveline shop for less than the price of what I could find just a new joint kit for.
Of course, you'd have to remove the axles and take them to the shop but where I went they had all the parts in stock and did the job in about 4 hours.

Not neccessarily...
...I've seen plenty of times where you have a clicking noise go away by simply cleaning and repacking the joint. However, in terms of price and the amount of work involved, I would just have it rebuilt anyways.
