I had the same problem. I guess the calipers get old and shake back and forth which is why you hear the rattling (gravel roads are the worst). I took my car into an audi specialist (not dealer) and they have a kit which replaces a few things, spring/seals etc. It tightens them back up and the rattling should dissapear. This is a normal problem.
