First easy guess is the rear driveshaft. If it a two piece, check the carrier bearing. If it has over 75K, there is a good chance it is the Ujoints. Really hard to tell without dropping the shaft and feeling the joints for roughness. Good luck.

You say it's an '06? Auto or manual? If manual it could very easily be the DMF letting go.
