Generally, noise under load, like turning.
I had what I thought was a bad bearing (noise in turns none while straight),
it turned out to be loose wheel bolts. Torque to 81 ft lbs or whatever your
wheel specs are.
Also check to see if you have aftermarket wheels if the bolts are Ball end
and rounded to seat into the wheel holes. Cone or Conical aren't for Audis
unless the alloy / wheel/ is drilled for that type of fastener.
What I'm talking about are here:
