Default CV Boot/Axle Problems?

The other day I was driving over a speed bump at about 10 mph and I heard a weird noise, about half a second long, coming from my drivers side front. Then later that day, when going through a small ditch, like on the beginning of a driveway, where the rain water runs, I heard another noise. Then, when I was trying to catch a light, I was going about 35 mph through a left turn, and the road kinda lumped up, so my car went up then down, you know... anyways I heard a slamming noise from the same place. I haven't gotten my CV boots fixed yet. Is this the problem or could it be something else? Or is there no problem at all? Stock suspension set up btw.

TIA,
John

Yeh I know, its late lol. Plus I can't really describe the sounds. I'm going to look under at my CV Boots tomorrow, but I'm starting to get worried.

I have no idea what any of this stuff is lol. How much do you think it would cost to get a Honda dealer repair shop to look at it and give me an estimate??
