Check the power steering fluid. Might be low. That will do it.

PS was low two weeks ago. However the noise I have had since day one and the dealer said "they all do that". But of course they do not as I have driven the 2001, 2002 (other ones) and 2003 models of A4 1.8T. They are all quiet like a $ 30K car should be. Once the PS fluid was topped off, the noise was reduced "somewhat". But the whole car interior vibrates like a 25 year old Jeep. It must be something in the drive train. However when I'm in NEUTRAL (5spd) there is NO noise at all. Completely quiet as could be. I hope this Tuesday they will identify it quickly. I think I have....bad quattro / differential.

A bad CV Joint makes noise even if the car is in neutral but still rolling.
True.
