Metallic noise in Audi A6 when starting or braking

I own a 2021 Audi A6 with a gasoline engine and 140,000 km (approximately 87,000 miles) on the odometer. When starting or braking, I hear a noise from the front axle that sounds like metal on metal. What could be the cause of this?

Summary of the thread

A 2021 Audi A6 with 140,000 km is experiencing a metallic noise from the front axle when starting or braking. The likely cause is worn brake pads and rotors, which can create a metal-on-metal sound. The suggested solution is to inspect and replace the brake pads and rotors if they are worn to ensure safety and resolve the noise issue.

Check the brake pads and rotors for wear, as worn-out pads can cause a metal-on-metal noise. If they are worn, replace them immediately to ensure safety. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.
