Rear end noise - maybe a Haldex issue?

My MY2014 S3 (66,000km, never raced or abused) has dveleoped a rumble in the rear axle, seems to be in sync with speed (ie: reduces as you reduce speed) and is definitely more pronounced above about 105km/h. Sounds like old school wheel bearing rumble, but am worried it may be more - possibly related to the Haldex? It had the Haldex and trans service at 60,000km by Audvolks, but am wondering if I should have rear Haldex checked and if the internal filters were not done/should be checked?
Anyone have any similar experience with this?
Also, any recommendations for Audi S3 specilaoist service centres Melbourne South/SE/Bayside - other than Audvolks? Thanks.
 
I have the exact same issue with my 2016 RS3.
Only done 40,000 kms and the problem is the Haldex transfer case needs to be replaced, it’s sending a vibration to the back wheels. I was quoted $11k to fix
