    high pitch noise

    I can hear a high pitch whine from the interior, sounds like a turbo.
    I thought it was the tach because the noise was tied to the rpm but its not the tach. Seems like the noise is only there while driving and the car is warmed up so its not the air pump

    If you only hear it when the car is in motion, the possibilities are a bit more limited, but there are still several potential culprits. A4 or M6?

    Do you have an aftermarket shifter? Good chance this is normal noise from the T56, and an aftermarket shifter conducts more of it into the interior than a stock shifter. Less noise when cool due to the trans fluid being thicker.

    Does it sound like it could be an electrical noise...? Not a whole lot under the drivers side of the dash that could cause a noise like you are describing except the steering or the back of the motor...could be an exhaust leak or a vacuum leak based on what you are saying it sounds like. Vacuum leaks will often make a high pitched noise like a turbo. I had one about 6 months ago that sounded like a supercharger when I got on the throttle...a guy at work even asked if it had a blower
