Hi All
I've just aquired my latest A4 and it really is a bit of a beast but when pulling away in 1st or 2nd until the speed picks up there seems to be a bit of a knock coming from the rear of the car, or at least thats where it sounds to be coming from.
It increases with road speed and obviously when changing up to 2nd the frequency of the knock drops before picking up again??.
3rd 4th,5th and 6th gears don't seem to be affected but it really is more noticeable when pulling away in 1st.
if you just let the engine idle pull the car away from rest then the noise cannot be heard but when the throttle is applied it seems to pick up a knock??
Now it's not a loud knock, more of a dull thud type knock and it's not loud but it's definately there.
Now the car has had one company owner and has FASH and has only covered 60k with the last MOT having just been done before i picked the car up so really can't see it being serious but it's bugging me and would rather sort it sooner than later, any help would be much appreciated.
