Should a LSD be making any noises when turning tight corners?

Mine makes a noise which sounds like bushes creaking, or exhausts moving against mounts, but its none of those, as I checked them last week.

The noise isnt getting worse, just wondering if its the diff dragging or something and supposed to happen.

First thing to do is make sure it's got the right oil in it. It's not uncommon for them to creak a little but mine improved a lot when I switched from the Comma LSD oil to BMW recommended stuff as per the Wiki page:
