I don't know wtf the problem is, I just put new pads on today and took my car for a spin and wow lots of noise and what sounded like grinding sure enough is was the caliper and the disk touching one another, the other side has lots of clearance but for some damn reason this side has almost none ? I'm guessing that somone replaced tha disk for some reason and its just a wee too big. Also the calpier is touching the disk in the center of the caliper between the two pads. Please help ? or advise thanks for the help

 

My guess is bearings. How old is the car and how many miles?

 

the car is a 90 pro with just over 100k on on it. The rotors look great but would they warp up ? I though when rotors warped they warpe sideways not up and down ?

 

Jack it up on one corner, grab a wheel and rock hard. If you get movement back and forth on the wheel and hear a kind of a low clicking or clunking noise, then it's probably a bearing. If you don't, check the rotors. Make sure that you definately got the caliper mounting bolts tight also. If the calipers can move the least bit, they'll rub.

 

That description doesn't sound like warped rotors. What model is your car? Does it have rear disc brakes? If you have a DX model, you may have an LX sized rotor replacement.

 

Got it fixed. The dumbass that owned the car before me put a dx caliper brake bracket on the car it has a marking tha says "13" on the lx has a "14" marking on it, so I went to a junk yard and payed 10 bucks now its great again thanks for your help guys you got the wheels in my hed turning.

 

I figured that they may have giving you the wrong pads, but khudos , on finding the problem
