Usually at low speed you hear a grinding noise when turning the wheel (assuming its front wheel drive) coming from the lower front. Another more involved way is to jack up the front and look to see if the rubber boot that covers the CV (constant velocity) joint is intact and not split with metal/dirt inside. You did not say if if is rear wheel CV joint... usually on all wheel drive independent suspension vehicles..... they of cause dont turn put will a grinding /binding noise at low speed when going around corners, usually the inside wheel. Hope that answers your question
