Rotational noise after replacing rotors and pads?
I had all four rotors and brake pads replaced today and unfotunatley I now have a metallic rubbing noise when the car is moving. The rotors are standard brembo and the pads are oem Lexus. The car seems to bake fine but the sound is extremely annoying. I have not gone back to the shop that did the work yet hoping that maybe the noise will go away after some driving. Can anyone tell me if this is normal or is this a problem?

I was standing and watchIng the whole time and it appeared like he replaced everything the way it was before. If the sound does not go away in a few days then I will take the car back and have him trouble shoot.

Yeah a lot of times the backing plate/dust shield/whatever the hell you want to call it will bend and just slightly touch the rotor as there is not much tolerance between the two..
It happens a lot..I wouldnt say your car making a metal to metal noise after a brake job is "normal" and damn sure shouldnt be there for a "few weeks"!!!
