    That's not a question :)

    Unfortunately poor sarcasm is all I can offer. Anything loose around the wheel arches that might be being clipped off of?

    CV Joints? Not likely on a car of that age (you don't mention the mileage). That's all that comes to mind.

    A guess would be CV joints inner or outer
    Drive around a car park and go around in circles
    Should hear the typical clicking or clunking sound
    Was typical on the older models

    Could also be something loose
    Just have a look
    Have you had any work done recently,something not tightened correctly
    Price the parts online,just to get a rough guide

    Is it only when turning or do you also hear noise going over speed bumps?

    Just when turning left or right in 1st and 2nd gear, once I straighten up and put down the boot its gone

    It could be anything been honest mate
    Your best bet is to find a indi garage that works on Audi's or join one of the Audi forums,could be a common fault
    Vwaudiforum UK would be a good place for info
    That sort of rattling noise would wreck my head too
