Re: Cv Joint question & Suspension noise (volks_man)
Sounds like to me that you either have a bad wheel bearing (most likely) or a bad ball joint. Bad wheel bearings will cause a humming noise when driving... especially during a turn. They also can cause your wheel/rotor to freely move a little depending on how badly damaged it is (ie. grab hold of the top and bottom of your rotor and wiggle it).
You should also inspect your cv-boot for tears and such. The clunk could be a number of things... but usually turns out to be a bad strut bearing. I'm not sure if this would be related to your wheel bearing tho'.
