*UPDATE* SOLVED!!!!

So i started looking around my car and started to tap things inside the wheel. When I got to the plate next to the rotor and calipers (The back plate). Everything I tape on that plate it would make the slinky metal sound (mesh on mesh rub noise). Brought it back to the dealer and they said they had to readjust it. I thought there was a rock in there or it was bent. So far after the readjusting, there is no noise =)

Hi,

Has anyone experienced a mesh (a metal cooking item that drains water from a pot) on mesh rub sound. It also sounds like a metal slinky rolling around. I checked my springs and its not that. This sound occurs sometimes when i brake a bit and go and brake again (not all the time). Sometimes i hear it when i hit a mini bump on the highway but it doesnt happen when i hit a big bump. Driving feels fine, its just the noise that bothers me. Oh, also I can only hear when i roll down my windows. It sounds like its coming from the front but when we hear things in the car it could be deceiving so im not 100% sure its from the front. Please help or provide any info. I have a 14 Touring 7AT. Thanks in advance.
