Clicking noise driver side ???

07 TT, just back from the shop a week ago due to clutch slave cylinder replacement. Driving along at 30 mph, sudden onset of metallic "clicking" noise from left front tire area. Clicking is faster with increased wheel speed but not engine speed. No issues with braking, shifting or clutch.
Thoughts before I drag it back to the dealer? Safe to drive
