Re: 10 Hz resonance to blast your ear drums
This is typical with any car with a sunroof open. The wind comes up over the windshield and creating a negative pressure on the sunroof. My 4Runner has this problem too. You can reduce this effect by opening another window.

Re: ** Attn: Bob *** Control Arm stuff..
Hi Andy,
I'm surprised that they can't diagnose the problem. Try another dealer or even a knowledgable Audi/VW mechanic. The lower control arms and guide links fail the most. If they don't see anything, have them check the tie rods and steering rack. Also, as a stetch, I've heard of spring seating problems and sway bar links. Good luck and tell us how it goes.
Regards,
Bob
