These bumps were your typical crack heaves in asphalt. Not very big.

This metallic thump, is this what people hear when they have a torque tube problem?
If you have a A6 the noise is like a rattle & can of marbles coming from under and to the rear of the car, most people having the problem could detect it sitting and ideling, being the prop shaft is always turning. If you have a M7 I am not sure what the symptoms would be, but you have a A6 which have had more TT problems than the M7. Just take it to the dealer and they will determine the cause.
