Choraltech is right on the money. I just bought an A6 that my daughter has named The Cricket because of the AC/Heater blower motor. I plan to replace the assembly because it is unpredictable and can make the noise at any fan speed or even start and stop when going over bumps in the road.

I have the same problem with my 99 A6, but it seems to be most noticeable on right turns for whatever reason. Would a problem with the heater blower affect a chirping only to the right? I don't see the correlation, but I guess it could be an imbalance and so when I make a right turn or hit a speed bump it could slightly set it off. Also, if it is the heater blower, is it easy to replace on my own?

5 bolts to drop the glove box panel (2 down low and 3 at the top when you open the glove box). Then it's another 3 bolts and a connector to get the blower out.
It chirps when you turn due to the gyroscopic effect - the blower axis resists changing direction. Give it a chance, it will start to chirp more and more!
