Default New Vette owner, does this sound like a problem?

07 C6 auto with 5k miles

When I turn at very low speeds, say 5mph, I hear a low growling noise...

Is this normal or should I take her in?

Thanks

..A bit more information would be good. Where is the sound coming from, or where does it sound like it's coming from?

also does it do it when you speed up, turn, brake and if you turn any specific way? other info helps because it's hard to tell where it would be coming from as if could be anything. ~Cole~

Common problem... may be the limited slip clutches.

Drop by a dealer and have their service dep't check it.
