Default Suspension noise

at low speeds you can hear a noise in the front almost like something is loose when you hit a bump.. at normal speeds you cannot hear it at all!! I put it on a lift and everything looked solid...
Has anyone had this ?

I started hearing something similar on my 2016 A6, but in my case it seems to come from the back. It started when it got cold outside.

Thank you for letting us know. I will take mine in about a month. Hopefully they will be able to detect and fix mine as well.
