I would first open your boot to make sure there isn’t a man hiding in there with a grinder.

Then I would get your diff checked out.

(Hopefully someone here knows more than me though)

Rotors touching the pads?

My BA did that a few times, only when low speed and required adjustment.

I was meaning after replacement not due to age/wear.

Sounds like it's not it in any case.
