Well I don’t want to go throwing parts at this and hope I stumble upon the fix only after spending unneeded hundreds of pesos. Is there a way to troubleshoot any of this?

Inspect your CV boots for any holes/perforations. This is the path for dirt/dust/debris to enter and cause wear in the CV joints which leads to the clicking.
Not too difficult/expensive to replace the boots. There are two each side - one inner and one outer.

Ok so with the wheel off, I found I have about 1/4-1/2” of play in the left front CV shaft. The boot is ok and the clamp is ok with no evidence of it having ever shed its grease... but it’s dry.
I ordered a new CV shaft but it doesn’t come with an ABS tone ring. I can’t imagine them being terribly hard to swap over but does anyone know how to do this without damaging it?
