Yes, what happened finally?
Unfortunately, sometimes the frame, parts, are not glues or bolted properly. It is possible that your S4 suffers from such a thing.
A, "thunk", can be difficult to diagnose. I am very surprised that they didn't try suspension parts, in particular the struts and connection points. I've known some cars that had a thunk at the front over bumps and the problem was the strut connections.

any update?
Latest: (as of 4/9):
Audi Corp has moved my complaint to their buyback group for evaluation. Dealer speculates they will offer to replace the car with a 2019 model or offer me an allowance to use combined with car as a trade in.
I don't love the trade in idea, because I don't believe the title is clouded. Dealer probably auctions the car and some other poor slob inadvertently gets the problem I'm getting rid of.
If I do end up with a new car (either way) I guess I won't be ordering one since the factory is shut down. Anyone know if there are any cars in transit or is what the dealers have on the ground right now all they'll get for awhile?
