Hi there
Need more information than this, like is the clicking there when you go around in circle hard lock (try both ways L & R) ? Is it a clunk or click. Here is a good one - how fast were you going when you hit the speed hump haha

its not a CV click, doing appx 20kmh over a large/long speed bump on my street, would probably class is as a clunk now that you say that. - may be able to get a recording of the noise sometime.

check your front CV joints as that go into the hub , as the surclip on the end of the CV shaft comes off, and it moves in the hub, and aso the inner hub bearings go and it moves the CV joint up and down which also makes a clicking ( clonking ) sound.... I have just replaced my hub
