2012 C63 AMG noise when put into gear?

Hey,
Just curious if anyone else can replicate this noise. When the vehicle is put in Drive or Reverse and then given just a tad of gas there a POP noise. Not crazy loud but noticeable. Every time i go into Drive/Reverse or vise versa it does it ONLY when i apply gas. I can even hold the brake pedal down, switch to drive or reverse and hear the POP noise. I had someone in the car do it and i pinpointed it to the rear end area.


Side note: i noticed this noise the day after the track.... one run i had some bad wheel hop.....im HOPING its not related.
There are no other ill side effects at all.

Car has 6k miles

OP, how often do you encounter/experience the wheel hop?

See my recently posted thread here: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...op-13-c63.html

Edit: I see that your car is pretty heavily modded.

Not often. Every now and then. I get wheel hop sometimes in the track and street. The only thing that worries me is that the wheel hop can be quite aggressive. I back out as soon as it starts.

Do you have the factory LSD?? IF not this might be a great opportunity to get one, with you covering the difference in cost of the parts??
