Got a wee knocking noice coming from the front left, could this be a symptom of a CV joint on the way out?

Its faint, not to severe and it doesn't affect the way the car drives. Sometimes you hear it, sometimes you don't.

Any clues?

Put it on full locj and drive rounf ina tight circle at a constant speed. If you hear the knocking sound again and again its a 90% chance its your CV joint.
