The second most regular possibility of a cabin noise in your Audi Q2 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 reason of a cabin noise on Audi Q2.

If you feel a plastic noise on the doors of your Audi Q2, it is plausible that it is one of your door trim fasteners that is damaged, or a screw from an internal mechanism of the glass for example or the loudspeaker that has unscrewed and therefore makes the component in question to rub against the door interior.

I listen to a cabin noise when hot Audi Q2
If, on the other hand, you hear cabin noises in your Audi Q2 when summer starts or when the outside temperature is warm, it is sadly rational that this syndrome manifests itself more during these times. Indeed, 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 cause cabin noises when hot on your Audi Q2. It is difficult to resolve this issue, you can always look for the exact origin of the noise, and try to put foams or tape between the expanding units to limit their noise from their expansion.
