Hello Steve, sorry for delay in replying. Audi didn’t come up with any solutions and tried a process of elimination; pads, discs then it was due a full caliper change the week we went into look down and that didn’t go ahead. In my opinion it’s definitely a ambient temp brake noise. As the warm weather arrived the noise subsided unless early in the morning. I had a few other issues such as erratic idling when in gear and foot on the brake. Boot lock failed and wouldn’t “lock in” final close position and boot opened in transit a few times. 😂 A hit/miss with my windows on occasion and would be all over the place In various open positions when I unlocked the car. basically learnt to fully open them then put them up. Other than that it drives 😂😂 to be honest I’ve lost all faith in it and actually in my final week to make up my mind if I wish to return or not as I went down the rejection route and my complaint was upheld.

Hello, I have the same problem. Purchased an approved used, 9 months old. The vehicle has been in 3 times now and is with the dealer at present. I’m looking for trends. To date, Cleaned everything up and noise still present. Plenty of meat on pads and discs clean/minimal wear. Second visit, changed pads, noise disappeared and exactly 7 days later returned. Third visit, changed discs and pad, again noise disappeared and yet again returned after 7 days. If “normal” why is the noise disappearing when new components are installed for the noise to return when/if components are “bedding” in.

Interesting, I’ll keep an eye on this. To date, no problems with my own.

Thanks Trevor. I did take a rush of “brown stuff” to the brain back in May 2018. Traded in a A5 coup for a new 4 series Gran Coupe. I was constantly comparing and rapidly got shot of the thing for another A5 coupe.

Hello All, new to forum though not new to Audi. Been with Audi now 12 years. Currently own a 2019 A5 coupe and a 2018 Q8. Had A5 coups and Sportbacks since 2007. In a whole I’ve had relatively easy driving over the years with Audi; only 1 car giving me a headache but the good times outweigh the bad. I’m boring with regards to doing anything to enhance the cars either cosmetically or Performance related. Try to keep them clean and that’s about it. I don’t do many miles, prefer my work van 😂 . Thanks in advance if I ask any questions and I’ll be sure and search the forum before questioning. 👍🏻
