Have any avant owners experienced any squeaks coming from the boot area? I have narrowed it down to somewhere from the near side quarter panel. Over bumpy surfaces there is a persistent squeak which is really annoying! Before I book it back into the dealers (don't really have time) has any one else had any issues or any ideas what the problem might be?
Cheers

Maybe just settling in ? If its over bumpy surfaces, maybe the suspension
Hope you get it sorted. I gathered all modern audi's had a few squeaks here and there.

Hopefully not the case with all modern audis having squeaks!
Must say the a3 I had before trading up to the b9 was faultless
Have now worked out that the squeak only appears at speeds lower than 45mph.
Have it booked into Huntingdon Audi on Friday for a diagnostic. Hopefully they can sort it out as I have a week planned touring the Scottish highlands next week and really want to enjoy a squeak free road trip!

reminds me of the old 80's Golf advert with the women's earing squeaking.

Mine did this and it turns out that sometimes the suspension blocks are slighty too tight and need refitting. They did mine in 5 minutes and all perfect again now.
