9s here I come!

I read some of that thread. It states,

"Condition
Some customers may comment on a clunk and/or chatter type noise from the rear of the vehicle while making turns."

Thought that didn't apply to you, since you describes it as a noise it makes while in neutral and being stationary?

Also, I saw that NF also had a 2012 ZR1 in exactly the same color combo. He must really like that look.

Yeah but I'm sure it applies to the same thing they described exactly what I hear but the turning part.

If you hear abnormal noises when the car is not moving it's not coming from the rear diff.

TAKE THE DAMN CAR TO SOMEONE WHO CAN PROPERLY DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM!

Find the real problem and stop trying to make up problems and solutions.

No, I think he got it from Hi Star Auto. North Star has a different one still listed.

Torque tube would stop turning - and the noise would stop - when you depress the clutch pedal. Since you said, in a previous post, that pressing in the clutch did not stop the noise, it cannot be anything past the clutch.
