(SOLVED!) Loud transmission clunk

Hi all,

I have about 130,000 miles on my 2013 and I've just developed this ultra loud transmission clunk when making right turns only under acceleration.

This noise is not there when I have the clutch in and take a right turn.

My throwout bearing is about to go out again based on the compressed air noise it makes when I put my foot on the clutch, but I think this issue is unrelated to the throw out bearing.

I had my diff/transmission serviced 10k miles ago with Motul, no signs of leaks or anything.

I checked my transmission mount and everything looked fine and all the bolts were properly torqued. When I rev the car in Neutral I don't hear any noises so that may rule out engine mounts. The noise is coming from directly in front/below the shifter.

Anyone have any idea on what this noise could be??? Not only is it loud, but it shakes the whole car violently.

TIA.
