Owner Narrative
Component: Brake pads and rotors Safety Risk: Distraction Reproduction: 100% reproducible on any day. Inspection: Inspected by dealer, dealer claims no malfunction. Warning lamps: None. Description: The brakes resonate in the calipers when creeping. The slip and grip of the pads on the rotors creates a tone that is possibly further amplified by the suspension springs. The car has 4k miles and has being doing this since the second day of ownership. Audi claims no responsibility and will not attempt to fix it. The noise is so loud that it is distracting and others often ask whats wrong with the car. They claim that this is normal. No other car of its class has brake noise to this extent.
