check your brake pads as the wear strip will contact the disc rotor well before the pads wear out. Sometimes when they are close to touching, the rim/ rotor flex when cornering will allow the wear indicator to touch slightly. This is metal to metal.

G'day ace,

Need more input on the type of metallic noise emanating from your vehicle.

Clunk, ping, screech etc etc.
Cheers
