Hello everyone, I own a 2022 Audi SQ7 with a gasoline engine and 37,200 km mileage. I have a problem with loud/squeaking brakes. In addition, there is a clicking or knocking noise shortly before stopping, which increases on longer drives and when the car gets really warm. On short drives, it is hardly or not noticeable at all. Has anyone had similar experiences or knows what could be causing this? Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Check if there is any debris or dirt on the brake pads or rotors, as this can cause squeaking. Also, inspect the brake pad wear indicators to ensure they are not touching the rotors. If the noise persists, it might be best to have a mechanic inspect the brakes, especially since the noise increases with heat, which could indicate a more serious issue. Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions!
