Brakes clicking or clanging

I have a 2016 M3 I bought 3 months ago. It has 10k miles on the odometer.
When I drive slowly and gradually press the brake pedal, I can notice that there is some dead pedal travel and then I hear a clang when the brakes engage.
Is that normal? I have never had such experience with my previous cars - sure there has been some pedal travel before the brakes start acting, but there has never been such a click or clang.

Maybe I'm getting paranoid, because I have some intermittent clunk from the front passenger wheel while going over rough pavement and I have been trying to pin point what the issue is.

The dealer did some work to take care of a clicking noise while steering due to a bad strut and some mounting brackets and since I've started listening closely, there are all kinds of noises that are bugging me.

I'm planning to do a couple of track days in 3 weeks and I don't want this thing to fall apart on me.

On top of that I got the valvetronic motor clicking upon door unlocking a couple of times since I bought the car and today I got a drivetrain malfunction message after some hesitation at engine start.

I have an appointment for a couple of days from now, but I'm thinking of calling them today to take me in earlier.

Have you figured out the brake pedal clunk? I’m having the same issue currently
