Default A3 front end suspension noise

FYI I have a 2011 A3 and been having an intermittent clunking noise in the front
suspension. After 1 lube shop, 1 tire shop, and a dealership looking for the problem. The last dealership found that the suspension stops were not removed after shipping to the U.S.
A little frustrating but at least the problem is solved. Thanks Chitty Chitty it was you idea to
check for that problem
