I have a c7 with 8700km, with 800km the brake started to do a little noise, then increase to a very loud metal sound!!!

I wento to an Audi dealer, after sent many imagines, sounds to audi factory, they trade my pad brakes and rotor.

Ok, everything working nice.

Now, with 7000km STARTED again, i sent the car to the dealer, they took a lot of pictures, sounds, BUT audi factory does not want to trade.

Anybody have this problem?

Ceramic brakes, wheels 21"

Can only be not getting the brakes hot enough and/or sitting on the brakes with a low amount of pressure for a period of time.

I'm 6k miles in and have had no issues what so ever. But, I use the brakes as intended, late and hard.

Doodlebug, I think thats the nail on the head. I had problems on steels with being too kind and easy. They cars need a workout and without detailed knowledge I believe the ceramics require heat to work best. Still Audi should deal with this as a disatisfied customer may look elsewhere next time!
