Default 10 bolt noise question.

Bought an A4 car a few weeks ago. The rear end had a little I guess you would call it a whine to it. Pulled the diff cover and everything looks good. Took it to the track this past weekend and had drag radials on it and all was good. But now when I got it home when im going around a left hand corner it almost feels like the rear is binding up. Kind of jerky when just idleing into like a parking spot. It also kind of has like a growling sound when im idleing into a parking spot. Also I noticed when i am slowing down and when the car down shifts it feels like a clunk coming from the rear. I am hoping that part is universals. But anyone else experienced this? I really hate to put money in a 10 bolt. But if it is just something small like a wheel bearing (wishful thinking) it wont be too bad. Chime in if you have had anything like this. Thanks guys!

that sounds like the differential going bad, you gotta ask yourself do you want to invest in a ten bolt or just get a stronger rear end all together?
