Default Crunchy Front Suspension

hey guys. still somewhat a new audi owner. had an A4 B7 but was totaled out within a month of owning it. upgraded for a "newer" A4 B8 quattro. it's a 2009 V6.

i've had it going on 6-7 weeks now, and the suspension is starting to sound a little "dry" up front. it didn't start until about a week ago. it only happens when there is extra load on the suspension.(i.e. bumps/hitting inclines or declines) has anyone had any issues with this before? anything i should start looking at? sorry if it's a newb question. still getting used to the audi

Could be control arm bushings, but with it only being a 2009 I'd imagine they would still have plenty of life left.

Might be worth taking it in for an inspection. Typically that's not a bad idea any time you buy a new "used" vehicle so you know what to expect as for repairs in the future.
