It could be a number of things that would cause this. If it is only when you turn, it could be a suspension component such as a ball joint, strut or tie rod end. Do you notice the sound when you hit bumps also? It could be just that one of the bushings are worn out and need replaced. Some models however, you need to replace the whole part because the bushing does not get sold seperately. It could also be something as simple as greasing the joints. I would take it to a shop that specializes in suspension and have them take a look at it if you are not sure what to look for.

ball joint definatly check your upper and lower ball joints
