Just like the title says, when I make a slow (parking lot speed) turn with the clutch in (or in neutral), I sometimes get a "thump" or a "clunk" noise coming from the back (I think)

This ONLY happens when those conditions are met (slow turn not under power), if I make a slow turn and I am accelerating, or in gear, it will not thump/clunk.

I hope my diff isnt going out, I changed the oil about 1000 miles ago, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.... only a tiny bit of "fuzz" on the magnetic drain plug.

edit: oh yeah, as far as I know, this is a single thump/clunk (not clunk clunk clunk while turning)

sounds like it is your LSD.

why would not be in gear when turning?

if there's no noise when you're in gear, it should be fine.

Yeah, it doesnt happen a whole lot, but usually when I pull into a parking spot I might press in the clutch, and make the turn.

i think this is different from the cv joint issue.

this is just LSD noise
