Question cluck coming from front right side of car

I am trying to find where the cluck is coming from. I feel it more than I can hear it. It is coming from driver's side specially when I drive forward or back up the car from cold start (happens everytime during cold start ).

While driving, I don't feel it anymore and don't notice any difference at high speed. It is very hard to describe by writing.

Does anyone know what I should look for to find where the cluck coming from?

Maybe a chicken hiding somewhere in your car?

Is it coming from the rear end? I would think it could be a suspension component of it was all the time. Could be a cold diff as they do make noise when it's cold out until the unit heats up.

If it's after a cold start, it could be a cold Diff or DCT. I did a diff fluid flush @102K and mine cleaned up the cold start clunkiness a lot. DCT also is clunky cold and warm at slow speeds ... but could be something else, just throwing those out there.
