Question Clicking noise????

Hey guys, on my camry there is a small but noticable clicking noise coming from the drivers side front wheel. Its sound reminds me of a rock stuck in the tire tread because the clicking gets faster with speed. I have checked the tire out carefully but I do not see any rocks. So my question to you guys is what else could be making this noise?

Thanks for any help.

Yea most likely its a CV joint. I see you have the V6 wheel covers. Maybe there is a rock or part of a broken tab flying around in there....

Thanks for the help guys, I too thought that it was the CV joint but I wanted some other opinions first. I will check the things mentioned and report back later.

Thanks again

Happens with my camry sometimes. Rear right side. I just kick the tire (after close inspection and it goes away). Also try taking the hub caps off and seeing if that cures it.
Post back your findings plz.
