🔊 That clunk from the front of your Audi? It might be hiding inside a sealed bushing.

On A4, A5, A6, A7 and Q5 models with multi-link suspension, the upper control arm bushing can fail internally. The fluid leaks, the arm gains play, and you hear a knock over every bump.

A visual check won't catch it. Audi front end clunking like this needs a hands-on assessment.

You’ve turned the radio up to drown it out, haven’t you?

That thud over potholes and speed bumps that wasn’t there last month. It could be your suspension…

And that sound is coming from somewhere. Ignoring it won’t make it quieter.

Suspension parts wear gradually. There’s no warning light or dashboard alert. Only a slow shift in how things feel until something clunks loud enough to make you pay attention.

Our guide explains every part involved and the signs that tell you it’s time to act.
