The second most regular possibility of a cabin noise in your Audi Tt is that some elements that come apart may be loose, either because of too frequent disassembly that would have reduced the holding between these elements, or because of vibrations. Think about checking your ceiling light which is very often the cause of a cabin noise on Audi Tt. Otherwise open your doors, those closest to the source of the noise and verify all the openings, covers that are present there, some may have moved and therefore vibrate while driving.

I discover a cabin noise when hot Audi Tt
If, on the other hand, you discover cabin noises in your Audi Tt when summer comes or when the outside temperature is warm, it is sadly plausible that this issue manifests itself more during these cycles. In fact, plastic being a rather flexible material will expand with heat and will therefore much more easily rub on other plastic or metal parts, this is what will induce cabin noises when hot on your Audi Tt. It is difficult to resolve this issue, you can always look for the exact source of the noise, and try to put foams or tape between the expanding parts to limit their noise from their expansion.
