Or should I call you Ringo?

What you are describing sounds like a CV joint on the front.

When people talk about axle binding this usually refers to the back axles. The binding is caused by sticking clutches inside the gearbox. When it is happening the inner rear wheel locks while turning like from the brakes, particularly on a sandy or gravelly surface. It does not sound like a click or a knock.

While your car is up on a ramp check the rubber CV boots. It sometimes happens that the boot gets torn. The lubricant gets away and the lack of lubricant causes the CV to wear and eventually break. I mention this because the torn or damaged boot will usually indicate which CV joint is gone.

If you hear clicking on slow left turns, then probably your right CV is worn, as it is the one carrying the most pressure on a left turn. Likewise if clicking while turning right, you might suspect the left side axle CV.

Hope this helps
