2002 Pontiac Aztek 6 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic 116k miles

my aztek seems to have a rear differential area p;roblem, a sharp turn in one direction causes it to make a noise like something rubbing and occasionally triggers the ABS and AWD lights together.the noise is one direction only which I believe is to the left. it doesn't affect normal driving and resets by stopping ,shutting off engine in park and restarting. can you help, thanks timmyl

What you need to do is have the computer scanned to determine where the problem is coming from. Take it to a nationally recognized parts store and have them scan it. Most will do it for free. Also, it would be better if you could do this with the light still on.
