New slotted rotors and very abrasive, cold track brake pads? Yes, that would be normal noise. But that's not a normal noise for our brakes with street pads and drilled rotors.

Is it front or rear and which side? It would help to narrow it down. Without a steering wheel shake or vibration in the car and with just that sound, I'd assume something is rubbing the rotor (like a pebble). Normally, there would be more grinding noise associated with that.

It kind of sucks but you may have to pay a shop to remove the wheel and inspect the rotor and brake pads for debris or damage if the dealer is dismissing it.
