My car is making a clicking noise mainly when I turn, either left or right,after

What is your question?

after the turn is completed, it stops. I also smell something funny- sort of like a burnt smell. What do you think it could be?

Worn axle shaft CV Joints = clicking noise...... Lube from CV Joints on hot exhaust = burnt smell...

Thank you for answering, is it safe to drive until repaired/ And, can you give a ballpoint estimate for repair?

Should be ok to drive a-while... At the top of this page is an Estimator... Click on it and enter your info for an 'estimated' price in your zip code.

If that's all it is, shouldn't be too expensive to fix, it looks like-bad time of year for it though-is there any kind of treatment, lubricant,etc. I could add to help it till repaired?Thanks

Not really anything you can do but replace the axle shaft. I've seen them run a good while with this noise... However there is no guarantee !
