sounds like a couple things that I have gont through 1 was broken spider gear, I bet it is as simple as you are low on limited slip gear additive, I had the same problem It was a very easy fix, I just added more.

You need to get a buddy to get in the car cut the wheel and slowly get it to make the noise and you need to get outside the car,on the ground if you have to and listen for it. Try to sell closer where it is coming from.
