Default Odd drivetrain sound???

Hey... its a 2000 V70R AWD... my drivers side front wheel has been making this bizarre sound, it started off as a clicking then a tapping now it sounds like theres just metal loose and clanking around in the front end there somewhere. Here and there itll click and bang around... sometimes its loud as hell, and sometimes you really done even hear it... any ideas????

If it makes it any easier, when it was on the lift, the Volvo mechanic looked at (didnt test drive it) but said everything LOOKED good. So if its something that looks obvious... it can prolly be ruled out

Yeah well when the Mech doesn't take it for a drive you know they don't honestly care. Just like when I had my car serviced at the local dealership. I told them two problems and they didn't even take it for a test drive to hear them. Guess what, both problems still exist.
