Default Audi Noises

So are these cars just noisy? Because it feels like parts of the car aren’t solid and you just hear lots of different noises inside the cars cabin, like door noises, ticks, taps, etc. I tried that aerospace protectant all the rubber I could find as I read that helps but they are still there. Are Audi's just like this? It feels like the car is not solid and parts of it are off centered cause noise. This is my first Audi so I kind of thinking they are just like this? I have a Mazda 6 2003 that does not at all have sounds like this car does. Has anyone else experienced this? Just doesn't feel like the car is TIGHT and is loose or something in certain places in the car almost feeling like its shifting …

That sucks! I wonder if its the materials used and or parts just start to separate as the car ages...not sure...kind of annoying for a top end car as an Audi..i kind of forget it sometimes...but other times I am WTF...I wonder if 2005 and up experience this as well….oh well…Live and learn…

I have a few noises, but it just sounds like some of the pieces are so close together they rub a little. This is my first foreign car and I've noticed before even owning the car that the parts fit really tight, so I wonder if they just rub a little. For the most part I like the car though, just turn up the radio lol. Hope you enjoy the car.

2003 with 118k miles and it is the quietest car I ever owned. That may mean that I drove crappy cars in the past. But it's quiet, except for some wind noise, at all speeds. No rattling, so seat leather rubbing (unless I move the front seat up so that it contacts the console), etc.
