Default Clicking noise at low speeds

Hey everyone, my audi has been constantly clicking when i accel at low speeds but stops after i get about 30mph. The sound comes from the front left side when i am driving. I can sometimes feel the clicking when i am on the brakes.

Anyone have this similar problem or know what it is? Any help is appreciated. My car is an 2002 A4 1.8t. I thought i try to get some opinions on here before i goto Audi and fork up $120.00 just to get it looked at.

Thank you,
Michelle

It could be a constant velocity joint. Is it louder when you make a turn, particularly a tight left one?

Default problem fixed.

Hi everyone, the clicking noise was from a worn out bushing on the control arms. It is supposedly a common problem for the b6 audis. I replaced the upper and lower control arms for my car and it is running back to normal now.
