Default New 1LT Coupe A8. Chirp Noise Issue Found.

New 2016 base coupe w/A8 transmission.

Every time I hit the gas a little too hard from a stop...the rear tires let out a big chirp! Is this normal??

every time I push the little black button that says "engine start stop" there's a noise that comes from the rear end, is this normal?

Wow! Yes, of course. I was just having a little fun after reading all the "issues" and problems (especially about the A8) that come up in so many threads. I'm an old guy. "Chirping the tires" from a start or when shifting used to be a fun thing to do. C'mon guys, a little levity never hurt anyone.
