Just noticed a strange whining sound when I took the car for a spirited drive. Under acceleration when cornering hard It’s almost like a supercharger whine. This was during hard left turns on twisty roads. The sound is definately mechanical sounding. So just wandering if anyone else has had this issue .

Cheers Chris
 
Can't say it's something I've noticed on my quattro but maybe diff windup? Complete guess though.
 
Just had my wheel bearing changed at 21k miles. Whirring sound would describe it. Does it intensify or reduce with changes of speed ? Mine was early stages of going, so only bearable under low speed / engine noise. Technician told me would get progressively louder. If you’re under warranty its covered.
 
I’ve got this sound since new, only hear it when cornering on the track, did not really bother me, quite the opposite kinda adds fun.
 
No one else has said it so I’m going to.
Have you tried it without the Mrs in the car?
