Why is the Audi A3 engine making strange noises?

Recently, my Audi A3 has been making strange noises while driving. The engine sounds like it is struggling and there is a noticeable decrease in power. What could be causing these noises and should I be worried?

It is important to address these strange noises as soon as possible. It could be a sign of a serious issue with your engine. I recommend bringing your Audi A3 to a reputable mechanic for a thorough inspection.

Before bringing your car to a mechanic, try checking the oil levels and replacing the air filter. Sometimes, these simple maintenance tasks can solve the issue. If the noises persist, then it's best to seek professional help.

I had a similar experience with my Audi A3 and it turned out to be a problem with the exhaust system. I suggest having the exhaust checked and repaired if necessary.
