Ive just bought a 2008 A5 2.7 TDi with 32000 miles - it seems to suffer from terrible road noise , it has factory standard 18" alloy wheels . Everything else with the car is 100% spot on but on anything other than billiard ball smooth road surfaces the levels of road noise are simply acceptable . It drowns out the slicky smooth diesel V6 . I also have a 2007 A6 on 19" wheels and it isnt anywhere near as bad as this . Does anyone else have any experience of this . It is possibly a tyre issue ?? All input is appreciated many thanks Barry

I have the same thing with my A5 3.0 tdi, Must be a common thing with them.
