Default Weird noise whithin first 5 feet of moving car forward from start.

I turn on my '02 A4, say when i was parked in a parking lot, and drive forward about 5 feet...all of a sudden i hear a "clunk" of sorts....kinda sounds like maybe i drove over something or like the rear brake is stuck or something....makes noise real quick and then car drives just fine.

It does this everytime i start the car and drive forwards (from when the car was parked and turned off)

never heard it before though (car is 2 weeks old now)

Any ideas?

Default Your manual explains it in the ABS section, and more is explained at the URL

Hmmm ...the explanation sounds realistic, but why do I not hear the "clunk" sound?????
