Big snip

Matt,

I drive a 93 S4 which was recently chipped (mtm 1+).  My car makes none of
the noises you mention.  My car has 95,000 miles on the odo.  I have no idea
what noises 1 & 2 are.  If I had to guess I might suggest you at least check
engine / tranny mounts.  If they are worn they may allow excessive motion of
the supported components during "spirited" driving.  The 3rd noise might
suggest a bad bypass valve.
