    TDi Exhaust resonance hum at speed and occasional vibration? Can't figure it out...

    I have exactly the same issue with mine. I think its something to do with the propshaft damping as it rotates all the time and resonates under the conditions you highlight. http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/a3-s3-sportback-8p-chassis/100219-a3-2-0-tdi-quattro-prop-shaft-issue.html

The nuts are long and as they loosen off they fall...
