Default click when turning

Every time i make a hard right i hear one click coming from left wheel area. Any clue? It's not lug nuts, car only has 8500 miles. I've never noticed this before. Visual inspection shows nothing wrong. Car only does this when moving. Could it be cv joints or wheel bearings? Wouldn't think so with this little mileage. Dont feel like going to the dealer.
Thanks

I think it's a driveshaft bearing, " oh well here we go again to the dealer" hopefully a little grease will do it.

I have had the same issue, and have read of numerous other people that have. I'm not even sure if mine still does it. Next time I'm in it I'll give it a listen. Here is a thread I started on the exact same issue.

Default Cts-v

I am having the same problem in my 09 CTSV (12000+ miles) - both sides - 90% of the time I turn slowly. I am bringing to the shop on Wednesday. I will post the results as the CTSV uses many of the same parts (as the vette) and quite a few vette owners also own a CTSV.
