Thanks for the reply. The car has 36K and has made this noise from the start. As you say it may be too early for CV joints but could be the problem. In th shop for breaks and some other work. They are trying to figure out this problem too ... we'll see.

Have the same problem (i think) with a 2005 LX 470. Has anyone heard more on this? I hear a sound (like a poping sound) from under the driver's left foot area when starting to move from a full stop and at low speed turns. The noise almost always is in a set of 2 or 3 pops with about one/two second in between each pop. It is easily reproduced by veering to right/left at low speeds. Thanks!
