What sort of noise?? I know from driving the 2.0T FSI engine, it makes
a different sound than my 1.8T. People have described it as a 'coffee
maker' sound. Personally, I don't think the 2.0T FSI makes as nice a
sound as my 1.8T when accelerating. But need more detail on what sort
of sound yours is making.

I have a similar problem in my Audi A6 2,8 Multitronic from October
this year.
It is not a loud noise, but for an Audi it is. It is a kind of a loud
hard "humming" at low rpm (1100-2000) when the engine has to work a
little, e.g. slightly uphill.
I also have very unpleasant vibrations in the steering wheel and the
seat. They appear at idle and at the same rpms as the "humming".
I fear it is a general problem with the FSI engines. See this article:
http://stellenbosser.blogspot.com/2007/10/fsi.html
However, I have not experienced this in the demo cars I have tried, so
it might be different from car to car. I'll have an Audi technician
try the car tomorrow. He'll also bring another car of same model and
gearbox as reference.
