Squeaks and Rattles?
Over in the A7 Forum there is a disturbing thread (https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho....php?t=2808386) describing a number of A7 owners who have experienced "annoying noises" in a variety of places on their new A7(glove box, hud, left side of dash, right side of dash, trim around dash).
I would appreciate comments from new A6 owners about their experiences in this regard!
Many thanks!

I have had my car for 6 days. The only noise I can have which is very minimal, but when I have the window on the driver's side I can here a faint "whistle" noise. Its not something that's deal breaker by any means but it is def. there.

Some rattling in dash
I've noticed a very very slight rattling coming from the dashboard when I go over rough pavement. It seems to be coming from the upper right center portion, near the windshield, but I haven't been able to isolate it. It's a very light muted rattle but it drives me crazy, because the rest of the car is so solid and quiet!
Also, one time just recently, I noticed some louder, metallic-sounding rattling coming from around the sunroof area. It's strange because I heard it intermittently just that one time and haven't heard it since. Maybe it was in my head.
Overall, however, the A6 is amazingly quiet.

I'm starting to notice creaking from the folding side mirrors (had it for two months). I set it to automatically fold the mirrors upon locking. I will get the dealership to fix on my first service appointment. Hopefully, this will not be a recurring noise that I will have to minimize the usage of the folding mirrors.

I have had my car since this Jan. There was a small vibration coming from the front left by the windsheild, near the speaker, when i drove it off the lot. I now have rattles near both front door armrests that are really annoying. I have less than 5000 miles, but will need to have it fixed when i bring the car in for its first service, because it is starting to ruin the driving experince a bit.
I have had about 5 Audis since 2004 (allroads, Q7, A4) and this is by far the worst experience that i have had in terms of interior rattles and squeaks.
From the comments on this forum, I may be alone.
