Yeah, they do that when they sit for a while. After a few stops they will wear back to normal sounding. Mine do it a lot after they sit for a day or more, and especially if it has rained before the car was parked.

No worries here.

A little rust on the Rotors. Once after a wash and then putting the car up mine left a pad outline on the rotor. I now try to make sure I drive the car around the block after I wash it.
