Hmm I would raise it just to see if the clicking stops. If it does you know it's height/suspention related, how low have you gone? (Fender to tyre?) I know stock is about 50mm for the fronts 75mm for the back. Also have you done a wheel alignment? It could be that the toe or camber is off by a lot, but then again I know there is limited adjustment in the front so it might not be that.
You have to remember that the gearbox is left aligned so the cv joint on the left side is more bent than the right side...so of anything I would think the sound would be coming from the left. Just my thoughts

I see.. well im 99% sure that its coming from the front right side, ive had a passanger sit and stick their head out to let me know if they can hear anything but it's really faint, whereas the right side its extremely clear, so you're saying that if there was any cv joint being bent, it would be the left rather than the right. Ill keep you posted on the current ride height once i get home. Thanks in advance mate.

Probably driving like you own it instead of like you stole it would lead to less stress on the components as well.2021 Kamiq LE 110 , Moon White, BV cameras F & B
