I've recently bought an A4 Avant which I like very very much but it's not mint and I would like to expel these culprits from my daily experience. Before I give it to the dealer I wanted to hear your opinion.
First one is the coming from the interior light area in the left(driver) doors:
Creaking/Squeaking noise from door cards with interior lighting package that is present whenever a slightest pressure is exerted on the shown area.
It happens when exiting the vehicle or resting your elbow on the doors. Not as loud as in the video but quite noticeable.
I remember stumbling on this forum on similar topic and a suggestion that lubing the door card from the inside in that area should fix the problem. Anyone can confirm this? What to lube with?
Second one is a rattle from left of the dashboard between the doors and the virtual cockpit:
I'm quite convinced it's the dashboard and not the doors. It's easy to provoke and happens on any kind of road irregularities. With music turned to 1/4 volume it's becomes inaudible.
I've tried pressing all the elements on the dash and all seam very solid with no creaking sounds.
It sounds like it's coming from the inside.
I've noticed a lot of people have troubles with speakers and speaker grills rattling but mine are rock solid at all volumes.
ps. ignore my loud breathing...
