Default what the hell is this noise?

I have a strange noise coming from under the car whenever I'm in first gear and slowing down while i'm turning. Like for example in a parking lot when I'm just driving around there is a strange noise that sounds like my exhaust is moving but I checked it and it's not budging. What else could possibly be moving around under the car and making this noise? Its really embarassing because when i have friends riding with me they are like what is that noise under the car. It sounds like something is moving side to side.

If someone knows of this problem or have had this problem them self please inform me as to what it could be.

does it sound like screws rattling around in an oil bucket? Could be the torsen differential doing it's thing. I notice a bit of noise coming from my rear end, luckily no gear whine just yet. Due for a fluid change this year.

its sounds and feels like something under me is moving around and making this wine and clank noise. It's really hard to describe. It only does it at speeds less than 15 mph and while i'm turning like for example cruising through a parking lot.

I get that every once in a while too, but never really concerned myself with it. I usually wait for things to break so I have an excuse to upgrade... It's been a while though, ttt for ya...
