My 05 developed a noise up front that got worse in a short time, it sounded just like the wheel bearings I had changed many times in the past on other makes, just recently the Jeep overland, and before that the Caddy DTS, my Audi sounded just the same, but when I put it on my buddy's lift the sound was gone, of course I thought well there's no load so no noise, but the other vehicles made the bearing noise while in the air, and I definitely thought it was not the Pirelli P6's, as they only had 7000-8000 miles on them and had already been rotated, BUT it was the tires, I rotated them and the noise moved to the back, and it was no where as loud in the rear, even passenger heard nothing in the rear, Now 4000+/- miles the noise in showing it's ugly self in the front again, it's time for new wheels and tires....

Yep, Pirelli P6's are known howlers w/ even some wear. Had those on my A6 at one point and night and day when I got rid of them; as bad as an aggressive snow tire noise wise and that is a car no where near as quiet as the D3.

Here's my rear wheel bearing saga from a few months ago:

I did buy a cheap Harbor Freight press as I figured I would use it in the future. I will use it soon as I'm finally going to replace the upper CONtrol arm bushings. They arrived yesterday. The squeaks turned into a "clunk" recently.
