My owners manual says it's only due every 5 yrs or 240,000km which ever comes first.

As for the sound your getting in the front, it could be a strut mount, sway bar end link, maybe control arm bushing or even axle.

Double check your torque on the top strut mounts. If the sway links are good check the joint on the bottom of the hub, and also the A-arm bushings, front and back. I do it with a 3ft pry bar... I put positive and negative pressure on them to check for play... they'll move a little bit naturally but if they're bad, they'll move without deformation of the rubber. These things can be hard to nail down but when you finally figure it out it's a relief!
