Going into Audi tomorrow to hopefully get sorted
If no warranty fix available, then I'm going for Feroda ds2500's next time

On a separate issue, this is the result of a pothole induced puncture today :(

That is exactly what mine sound like. Pissing me right off. Audi got back to the dealers and want me to take it in so they can photograph all the brakes and send it over.

Audi had my car for the day today has stripped and cleaned out brakes, but no real improvement
They're sending a request to Audi uk to get them changed under warranty
I'll post up here when I hear back tomorrow

Mine's the same now
They've asked me to bring it in fir the day Monday so they can take pics of pads and discs and send in to Audi uk
Apparently, Audi have a number of RS4's with squealing brakes to look at

Anyone else have any noise ?

Quick update
Squealing has reduced by about 80% now, so at least it's no longer embarrassing to drive around in
Audi Swindon took photos of the discs and pads today and have sent them off to audi uk for review
Dealer told me that they're likely to replace discs and pads, but unfortunately I can't keep the old ones (damn)
Should hear back tomorrow or Wednesday

Not just yet. I think it's going to be early next year (pending a few things)

Mine are the same
First thing in the morning they're fine, and then as they warm up it gets worse
Saying that, it's been a lot better over the last few days

Ah - so still quite new. Have you done any spirited braking?

Yep, tried as suggested on the first page. Heat them up then 6 or 7 hard brakes not engaging ABS. Didn't make any difference.

Its been like it since the morning after picking it up.
