I have picked up a used Audi A5 2.0tdi Quattro 2010 with 120k miles and full service history.
the last owner tells me that the clutch has been done at 98k miles along with the cambelt and waterpump.

the car judder around 2.5-3k revs in third and fourth gear and it's been on a diagnostic machine which says something about the throttle body and the mechanic says it needs replacing.
does this sound like a throttle body problem ?

also when I turn almost full lock to the right it sounds like a grinding noise from the back left wheel.

and also when I start it up there's like a ticking/rattle noise, almost like the exhaust rattling. What could this be ?

i also hear the wind coming from the front door tweeter area by the wing mirror, how do I stop this ?

im looking for as much info on these models as possible so all help would be appreciated.

thankyou

I have the 2011 2.0 TFSI engine. Just hit 127,000 miles. At 126,000 miles my turbocharger went out. It was doing exactly the same what you described here

“And also when I start it up there's like a ticking/rattle noise, almost like the exhaust rattling. What could this be ?”

if in in fact it’s your turbocharger, you will most likely have to replace it.
