Default test it by going over a speed bump or something like that:

In my case the front sway bar bushings were getting old and creaky. That's the most popular front-end squeak, but it could be coming from other front-end suspension components.

Default I get this from the rear at times (not always) and think it's the Neuspeed sway bushings...>

Do you have an aftermarket sway bar? Aftermarket bushings?

I've got the newer ones that have been grooved to hold grease, but I haven't had the time to install them yet.

Default When you put the new bushings in, don't forget to 'zert 'em... You won't ever have to remove them

again to relube if you do...

Default Same on mine...

...but a quick trip to Continental Audi and a warranteed front sway bar set up took care of that.
