rear end noise

I changed the differential oil two weeks ago. Now when I decelerate or take left corners I hear a clicking sound in the back. car is an auto and I put in a little over a quart of Mobil 1 syn gear oil. Did I put in the wrong oil or forget to do something?

You need a Limited slip additive on that car. If you just put in regular mobil1 gear oil without a limited slip additive then you are ripping your limited slip differntial to shreads
