Hi all, I just got an A4 :) I have wanted one for ages, certainly an upgrade from my scooter.
I am hearing this rattling sound from the back of the car, I think it might be the exhaust.
Does anyone know if i can handle this myself or do I need to take it to a garrage
Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, this is my first car
Cheers

Hello, and welcome to the forum !
Right, the rattle. Could a number of things....
Do you have anything loose in the boot ? Check under the carpet and in the spare wheel well.
Do you have a child seat in the back ? My sons rattles like a good 'un at certain speeds....
Have you tried wobbling the tailpipe/s ? watch out they are usually dirty and may be hot!
Could be a mount, silencer breaking up, heatshield rattling....

x2 welcome to the world of Audi :D
As above check out the boot and storage areas, you never know what may be lurking lol. It's likely something minor.
Post a pic of the car when you get time mate.

Hello and welcome
I'm guessing when you say scooter you mean something bigger than a 50cc-? If not the A4 must feel mental! A good choice the A4- what engine did you go for?
Rattling from the rear can be a number of things- check the side storage panels in the boot as well as they have a habit of making noise if not secured properly.
As said pics when you have time :biglaugh:
