Why does my Audi A1's engine sound louder than usual?

I've been noticing that the engine noise in my Audi A1 has increased lately. It's not a drastic change, but it's definitely noticeable. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing this change in engine noise?

Hi Samantha, it's normal for engine noise to increase slightly over time as your car gets older. However, if the noise is a significant change and you're concerned, it's always a good idea to get it checked out by a mechanic. It could be something as simple as a loose belt or something more serious. Better to be safe than sorry.
