Default Braking "clunk" when reversing

Hi,

I own a 2007 Q7 3,6 Premium, certified edition.

I noticed a "clunking sound" a few months back (my wife drives the car normally ) when you reverse and apply the brakes. I know it sounds a little weird, but it almost sounds like the brake pads are loose.....

Anyway, I brought it to Audi who changed the pads and the sound went away, well at least for a good few months, but now it's back. Back I went to Audi and they say every looks fine. It's only when applying brakes when reversing. I am also convinced they pads are constantly "activated" as you can hear grinding noises when starting to drive.

Anyone had same issues and how was it corrected?

Thanks
Michael

Did you ever get this resolved? I have an 07 with the same issue, only it also clunks at low speeds in Drive. Just one more odd noise from a very expensive car...
