The untraceable squeak and clunk

I have 2011 IPL and I have this squeak / clunk in the front driver side area. 2 mechanics and infinti don’t know what it is. It’s not noticeable over like a speed bump where both wheels go over at the same time, but if I’m leaving an I decline garage and turning and the road goes from decline to flat I’ll hear it. Also, where I work I drove up a ramp and turn toward the driver side, then back into my parking spot. That instant where I start moving back and the weight of the car shifts I hear a loud pop sound. This drives me nuts and makes my car sound cheap. I love the car otherwise but may sell it if I can’t figure this out.

Also, it’s not the coilovers. I replaced them and the issue remained (talk about flushing $2k down the drain).

Any ideas as to what what this could be?

If its swaybar endlinks roll window down drive slow over speed bump you'll hear a click. Once the rubber boot wears and grease is gone its metal on metal clicking. Also it could be loose swaybar endlink check the nut
