Clunking sound from rear on light to medium bumps

I've got a 2SS A8, I got 5000 miles so far. I've noticed a clunking sound coming from the passenger rear suspension area., usually over rough roads and light bumps.
Any ideas or any have experienced the same.

I have uploaded a video. Sorry for the quality.

I have a 2SS A8 convertible with 6,000 miles that just started doing a similar thing. Mine also seems to do it when the car "twists" turning up or down an incline at an angle. The weather has gotten colder so I wonder if that has has something to do with it. Will probably try to look at it after the holidays.

Thanks for posting this G. Edwan. My 2SS convertible developed the same noise last Fall. I took it in to the dealer, but they couldn't reproduce. This will help provide the service department some insight when I take it again after I get it from storage (April 1st).
