On my rs6 c7 witch I have had 1 week now there is something rattling on the brakes. Like a metallic rattle. When I apply the brake the sound changes to more of a winding noise. It doesn't always rattle only when have either been down a bumpy rd or over speed bumps it's like it's loosening summit up!

Spoke to the guy who I got car off and he said he heard that noise when he had the pads changed. He put apex pads in not Audi pads.

Any ideas?

Sounds like something has been left loose, best have a look at it.

Did a google on apec pads they seem cheapo pads and seen a few people complaining about them rattling in other cars. So maybe it is the pads!
