Simple Solution... Find a friend close by... Open your trunk and ask him to grab that beer all the way up... When he reaches for it toss his *** in close the lid and tell him to listen around while you drive till he knows where it is coming from! Helps if the person knows Audis too...

That reminds me, have you been able to re-create the noise when the car is standing still, or is it only when you're driving?

Squeek from the front drivers side or rear when you get your fat *** out?? Front would indicate a lose CA bushing bolt or worn out ball joint/bushing. You said your CA's were replaced? I'd have someone double check the tq on those nutz-if the noise is from the front.

If from the rear, see if it makes this sound on level ground as you remove your fat *** out of the car without having the ebrake on. It could just be the pads squeeking on the rear rotor(s) as the weight of your fat *** is removed from the chasis. My rear brakes squeek a little as I get out of the car with the ebrake on when parked. If I were to engage the ebrake more, it wouldn't do this- try that too.
