Default Click while turning right

Hey Folks, I have an issue with my 03 accord
its has 120,000 miles and has run great since we bought it 2 years ago

here's the issue, when turning to the right, the front left wheel
makes a clicking noise that is spaced proportionally to how fast the
wheel is turning.

My first thought it that its a CV joint issue. agree? disagee?

here's the fun part, its been doing this for 2 years apparently.
My wife drives the car the bulk of the time, and the noise only occurs
when turning right, not left, and only if it is cold outside, IE less
that 40 F. So here in Michigan for 6 months of the year the noise
never happens.

I drove it this morning its 50's out, and no noise at all

If the boots themselves are torn its a mighty small tear, I don't
have a lift so I can't see the inner boot, but I can feel both the
inner and outer boots and neither has any grease on the outside, and
both feel fully intact.

So, I am reluctant to fix something that is not broken 1/2 the year.

any recommendations on actions I should take?

Dave
