Can anyone help me with this noise on my RS4? Been doing it for a few weeks now. Coming from front drivers side.

Re: Clicking noise??
I would say its either a worn or dry CV joint.
Unusual to hear it so loud and in a straight line.... CV joints usually show up worse when on full lock in either direction.
If i were you, i would try and get a look at the boot covering the joint, you may find its split and the lubricant has all washed out.
Not dreadfully expensive to replace, and relatively easy.

Re: Clicking noise??
From memory, Audi charged me circa £150 to do a CV boot change and re-grease.
I didn't have a clicking noise, as I instead noticed a split in the boot when doing a brake pad change.

Re: Clicking noise??
Thanks very much for your replies. Had thought it was a cv boot/joint but had something more major in my mind. It does it mainly when turning hard to the left and low speeds.
