Front Loud Clunk Metal Noise
I just bought a 2016 1SS A8 and every time I go over some rough roads or hit small potholes I hear a loud metal clunking noise. It sounds like it's straight metal hitting metal but I could be wrong. Has anyone had similar issues? It's only on rougher roads, hitting potholes, or when the car is making turns at an angle.

Mine had a loud metal on metal bang when turning the wheel when sitting still. Bad steering rack.

So I took it to the dealer and it looks like it was a loose sway bar. I don't know how that happened since it's a newer car but whatever. Right before I took it in it was making a clunk noise when I turned the wheel all the way and over bumps and rougher roads.

I have mine at the dealer right now for this (and a couple other issues) very reason. Thanks for posting what the issue was that they found. I'm going to drop by today and let them know to check the sway bar.
