CV joints will make a clicking sound when you take sharp turns, the clicking noise will come from the outside wheel during the turn. Hence if you make a right hand turn the left CV will "CLICK" and vice versa. A u-joint you should feel just as much as you hear. If you have a FWD you most likely do not have a U-Joint, but if you have a AWD,FWD or RWD you will have a u-joint.

Can cv joints cause slippage?

Yes, CV (constant velocity) joints can cause slippage if they become worn or damaged. When CV joints fail, they may not transmit torque effectively, leading to a loss of power transfer from the engine to the wheels. This can result in symptoms such as clicking noises during turns, vibrations, or a feeling of slippage while accelerating. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of worn CV joints can help prevent these issues.
