Sounds like the stability/traction control. Mine does it every time I go from the street to my steep driveway.

I've noticed this too, and it seems to be getting worse. For me it's not just a noise, I feel as if the car is shuddering from the back when I accelerate from a stop while turning. It seems to go away once the car is warm though, so I was assuming it was maybe the differential when it is cold. I'll try turning off traction control and seeing if it still happens, but the light never comes on when it happens so I don't know if traction control is the problem.

Really? We don't even know what the noise is to be categorizing it.
Anyway, try the same thing with your windows down. I find the inside rear wheel will sort of scrub/hop when taking off on a turn from a dead stop. Could be you hear/feel that. It's all good. |

Torsen differential. If it is loud and sounds like grinding, you've got trouble. Go reproduce the noise for your dealer and get your diff replaced on warranty.
