Noise coming from the back!

There is sometimes this light noise coming from the back when the car comes to a stop or when accelerating, and always when I go into a plaza (uphill). The noise sounds like when I put the car from neutral to D (DCT) or something is lose. The noise is very light. It's probably something normal, but I just want to know what it is and where it comes from. Most people probably won't notice it but I love this car and is very paranoid about it! Anyone else notice it too?

It kind of sounds like that but there shouldn't be sound from the clutch when there is no gear change right?

Does it make the noise as you're turning? If so, it's your diff. An oil change will fix it.
