2014 RS5 Carbon Ceramic Brake Noise. Help!!

[Reesta]

Hi,
So I have a super annoying problem I cannot solve for months on my RS5. After a stop, when I let go of the brake it makes this soft metal grinding sound from the driver side front as shown in the videos (link below). And noise disappears when I apply the brake. So I think it's a problem with my carbon ceramic brake. I checked the pads, rotor, caliper, dust shield, and everything seems okay. I even got new pads and new pin/spring/clip for the caliper. I've tried audi dealership and two other performance shops, they can't figure it out. Has anybody had the same problem with their cars and know what could be causing this noise? It only happens in low speed (below 15mph)

If it’s the front brakes and since you changed the pads it’s likely from the pad moving slightly against the bracket/piston.
1. Did you clean the caliper/bracket thoroughly and put high temp (>1000 C) grease on the back of the pad when you changed them?
2. Are you 100% sure it’s the brakes? You can ask someone to drive the car and you walk next to it to check.
