Arrow Slightly unfamiliar noises from rear

I have a '00, stock, besides wheels. Previous AP2 owner.

I'm noticing a rear noise when I go slow, for example over a speed bump which is like a light click noise like the noise of a clock hand moving rapidly. Ive heard a similar sound out a friends G35 and we concluded it was his 6 speed's limited slip.

My question is something loose here like a bearing nut, or ie a common issue, or is this a normal drive train noise? I plan to bring this up to the mechanic during my next oil change yet plan to drive the car a few more weeks beforehand if possible.

Regardless, I applaud Honda for a well-engineered car. I recall with my E36 M I was changing out rear suspension pieces that failed quite early and doing reinforcements to parts known to fail over time leading to subframe damage - tears.
