Noise from rear at tight corner

Hello,

I have a 09 Mini Cooper S Automatic and recently I am experiencing noise from rear when I turn tightly with about 25-30 miles of speed in both ways, right or left.
I searched the internet for the cause but I couldn't find any possibility.
First I supposed the differential oil but Mini is FWD, so it's not possible to hear noise from the rear.
Is there any possibility of struts?
Or any other causes?

What kind of noise is it, and what is the duration? Is it a grinding or metallic noise, or my or a rubbing noise? Does it occur as long as your under your specified conditions or is it brief?

It sounds like a quick metallic noise..like "da da da da da" as long as I make a quick and tight turn at a moderate speed. Since I live in a city, I have not had any chance to test it whether it last for long or not but 1-2 secs sounded pretty serious to me
