Default noicy rear brakes on STi -2003

Some advice please...

I hear a scraping noise from the rear brakes like if something is stuck between the brake pad and the disc. Is this something that someone has experienced?
It is very annoying since I hear it very clearly especially when braking from slow speeds like in traffic-jams etc.

Isn't your car under warranty?

Is it scoring the disk ?

I hear it on mine too, although only at low speeds and gentle braking. Had it checked and was told all is fine, but going to get checked at another dealer in a month or so.

that's exactly my experience, gentle braking and the scraping noice is very noticable.
I have no visible marks on the disks indicating that something has stuck between the pad and the disk.
I have no vibration so the disk should be ok...
