Default Grinding noise when going over speedbumps. Only audible internally

Hey folks.

I have a 2013 Audi A8 that has developed a "crunching" noise when it goes over speedbumps. It is only really audible in the cabin, standing by the side of the road and having Mrs drive the car over a bump I can't hear anything.

I recorded a short video this morning, the noise is at 46 sec, 57 sec 2:07 & 2:10 as I go back and forth over the speedbumps just outside my house.


Does anyone have any idea as to what this could be? I took it into Audi last year hoping that they could fix it, they changed / replaced something on the suspension to the tune of a few hundred quid, but it made no difference.

The noise at 2:10 is the closest to what I hear in the cabin, the engine noise and the audio on the GoPro isn't great but it's a horrid sounding noise and I would really like to address it.

Ed.

Wife's car ('15) does this and it is the control arms that have worn bushings.
