What size wheels do you have?

Driveshaft hitting Anti roll bar?

How long have you had the car? When did you lower it?

90% sure it's the drive shafts rubbing on the anti roll bar. Common problem with fwd A3's lowered on coilovers usually. The cure is to fit longer drop links I believe.

The proper cure is uprated rollbar with bigger hoops

or lift it up so the driveshafts are not binding when they compress essentially hammering the joints out
