Default C6 Rear End Problems

My '06 Convertible has developed a problem with the rear end. At slow speeds and sharp turns (pulling out of a parking space, for instance) the back ends acts like it is binding up and the car feels like the back wheels are "hopping" Kind of like a 4WD in "granny".

The read end fluid has been changed and the clutches back there have been replaced. Still doing it but it is sporadic.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what is the fix? The car is still under warranty so I would like to tell the dealer what to look for, if there are any suggestions.

Thanks

It seems most of the time its a fluid change out with some limited slip that fixes it.
