Default Strange noise

I recently picked up a '00 GT vert and have been lovin it. However today I was cruising, everything sounded fine, go to a buds house and leave. On my way home I heard a few strange sounds. Regular driving usually under Acceleration I hear a minor whine or "vwoovwoovwoo" kind of thing, not loud at all and it may be regular because it was the first time I had no sound, it is however on and off. The next one is the one that scares me. It sounds like something is being dragged or grinded underneath my car, it does not always make this noise and seems to do it in whatever gear. I am leaning on a transmission issue but am not sure. The car runs fine and drives great but this sound sounds horrible. Its not the engine because it does not do it when I rev in neutral, and i dont thing it would be a differential or axel issue because I rolled it down a hill and nothing happened (however near the end it was making the first noise).

Sorry for being long but if you could please give me suggestions that would be great.


Thanks!

It was tough for me to hear but now i am convinced it is the dif. as today i noticed some fluid coming from the differential. Any one know how much this is to fix?

Thanks!
