After taking my car to the “professionals” to diagnose the clicking/ creaking noises, I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem. My 2010 rx450h makes a loud popping/ clicking/ creaking noise when I accelerate, brake, and turn. One mechanic said it was the CV axel shaft, and another said there was nothing wrong with the car. Replacement of the shafts are incredibly pricey, so I want to make sure that’s the problem. I attached a video with the sound if anyone who has experienced similar could take a listen?

How many miles are on it?

It’s got 175,000, and I put on about 2,000 miles a month for work .

Sounds similar to worn CV joints that I have heard on other cars, especially if it's particularly noticeable during turns. Acceleration / deceleration should not cause it though.
