clicking noise from front wheel
I have a bongo 4 wheel drive, 1995 model. once I get up to 10 mp h I get a clicking from what sounds like my front offside wheel area. the lick increases the faster I go, it is less prominent if I have a slight right lock on as I drive, both c.v joints have been replaced.after about 10 miles it sometimes seems like it has disappeared,(but not always)there is no play in the wheel bearings, nothing visible is rubbing from brake calipers or discs. nothing seems to overheat.

Re: clicking noise from front wheel
if your happy with the new cv joints,are they new,then it could be something simple like brian suggests,or the wheel is the wrong centre hole size on the hub,or the wheel is loose at the nuts,or even the tyre on a damaged rim.
failing that,secure the motor from moving,jack one front and one back wheel up and run the engine in gear,this may point you in the right direction,at your own risk and all that

Could be a worn set of pads and the shims have broken up, you could take the wheel off and have a look for this. But any of the above are very valid starting points.
