Default CLICKING/TICKING SOUND IN FRONT END

I have noticed a clicking sound like a rock in the tire type sound comming from the front end but its not that.I cleaned the tire and it is still there and dealer hears it also and can't find the source. you can only hear it with the windows up from 20mph ^. Any ideas?
(P.S.)I will be posting some picks soon as I am still new to the site and loving what i've seen here.

Is the ticking sound constant, or does itincrease with either the vehicle speed, or engine RPM? It could ne a front U joint, bad front ring gear, or just the bad steering shaft that has been the subject of extensive discussion here and a GM TSB to replace the shaft with a newly designed part? UPDATE: Front-end Rattle...Any Suggestions?

Probably gonna need more info to determine which.

IT'S an late 07 H3 . the sound does pick up speed but not the same as if a rock was in the tire. it's fairly consitant from 45-70mph and its faint , dealer said he ckecked the shaft and it is tight as it should be and the noise he said is not the same. they are going to check it out again when we have better weather. i was just currious if someone may have heard this same time noise?
