I'm trying to figure out if I have a pinhole leak somewhere in my exhaust, some other problem, or if its just a normal German-Burble.

Basically, when I accelerate with the windows open near something that reflects the sound of the car back at me, I hear a rhythmic "burble" which seems to stay timed somewhat to the engine, and gets louder if I give the car more throttle. I'm pretty sure its not a sticky valve, it isn't clicky enough. It doesn't sound like a healthy exhaust note to me though, but I'm not used to the car either.

With the windows shut, I can't hear it at all - just a nice, purring engine.

So, is this possibly an exhaust issue, some other issue, or is this the normal stock audi sound? Any thoughts? (I've got 2 months bumper-bumper left and 12 months of almost-bumper-bumper warranty left, so if there MIGHT be some issue, I'd prefer to know what it could possibly be now so I can get it checked out)

Thanks!

That will allow you to hear the actual tone of the car and not get distortion.
I've noticed all sorts of weird tones when i'm hearing the sound bouncing off objects.
