Default A4 Brake Squeak

Just bought an A4 and took it on a little road trip up to whistler. It performed fantastic. But they are doing some massive road construction on the highway and some sections were a freakin dust storm. When I got home I noticed a little squeak in the brakes. Just dust? or the beginning of some brake issues? The car was just serviced and is immaculate.

Default Normal

Mine sounded like a transit bus for a few days and got it checked out afterwards and nothing was found out of the ordinary.

Bed-in your brakes and see if that helps.

Default It hasn't come back that loud in a long time

For the last few weeks it's been pretty quiet but it'll make some noise from time to time.
