Why does my front end make a popping sound when you put it in gear and you start to move and turn your wheal
Sounds like CV joint. Get both front wheels off the ground. start it up and and have someone listen for the source of the noise.

Hi Wild Bear
No 1....... Check your wheel nuts ! !!!!!!
If OK.....
Is the problem worse on full lock, one way ?
If so, it sounds like the drive shaft CV joint is shot.
If no....
Jack up the front, support car on axle stands.
Spin your front wheels, check the treads, and I should think, you will be able to tell the problem wheel.
Expect it might be in the brake caliper area, something loose and fouling the wheel or rim ?
Check for play too, in your front wheel bearings, by gripping the tyre, top and bottom and pulling, there should be no movement.
Give these things a try, and get back to me.
Good Luck !
A FixYa rating would be nice thank´s

SOURCE: will go into gear but wont move
Hello ! You said belt makes a noise and it goes into gear...? I have seen this on Maximas and it was a siezed ( frozen) AC compressor...I would try to remove the belt that is attached to the air conditioning compressor and see if it runs. If it runs ok you either have to replace the compressor or match up a smaller belt and bypass it if possible. If this does not help you may need to have it looked at by a professional to diag as there are other possibilities. I hope this helps to some degree.
SOURCE: POPPING IN THE FRONT END?
It could be worn suspension parts, like ball joints, tie rod ends, worn bushings. It is best to have a Front End Shop take a look at it to determine what part is worn out.
