I just had my rotors on my 2003 Ranger turned and found it making a rubbing noise after I reinstalled it. Turns out that a few of the fins on the circular venting disc on the back side of the rotor were sticking out and rubbing on a bolt head. I just tapped them in a bit. Maybe that helps you.
What else can I help you with?

How much does a 1999 Astro van distributor cost?

You just had brakes and rotors replaced and you get a high pitched squeal what could be causing it?
If the brake pads come with shims or other anti-rattle hardware and it is not used on the vehicle, the brake pads will vibrate against the rotor as they are being applied and that will cause them to squeal.
Can you replace just one rotor?
Can I reuse a resurfaced brake rotor with a new rotor on a car
What is causing the rear pads not to grip rotors on 2010 Chrysler town and country van. i just replaced the rotor and pads and it apears the rear brakes are not working properly?
You most likely have screwed the caliper pistons in too far. You have to set them as close to the rotor as possible.
Why do your brakes smell like burning rubber I have replaced the brakes but there is a really bad smell of burning rubber after just a short driving period What could be causing this?
If a calliper is "hanging", it could be causing the brake pads to press against the rotor and overheat the brakes. You may want to see if the calliper is dragging.
Why do rotors rattle when front brakes and rotors were just replaced?
brake pads, like any two surfaces which rub against each other, must ' seat' as it is called and then the pads will have 'adapted' to the irregularities of the vehicle's rotor surface. And,,, it could be that the more expensive rotor needs to be replaced as well - ouch$$$. This seating should take place on average, during the first week of driving. If not, check your bank balance and then humbly go back to the installer. Pads are much cheaper and should be checked often to prevent rotor damage. It also DOES NOT PAY to have cheap pads installed. We are busy people and don't have time to keep checking things like this, just to save a few bucks on brake pads. 'yeah, I just saved ten bucks on brake pads'
How do you remove the disc for turning on a 4 wheel drive Nissan Pathfiner circa 1995?
Did the pads cut into the rotor? Are the rotors warped? If that's the case, it will have to be replaced. If not, don't worry about having them turned; just put in new pads and run with it. A lot of companies are now advising against turning the rotors. And I never have. If they are out of specs, I just throw them away and get new ones.
What is a opposition?
Opposition just means being against something.
Does a warped rotor need replaced asap?
No you do not have to get new rotors just have them resurfaced. If they are to much warpage then you may need new ones. I would try getting them resurfaced before you replace them.
How do you know when to change your brakes?
The easiest way to know whether or not your brakes need to be replaced is by looking at the pads. You should have at least 1/4 inch of break pad pressed against the rotor. You don't always have to take the wheel off to see them, just look through the spokes of the wheel.
You just replaced the brakes in your car and they still squeak What is the problem?
If you didn't turn the rotors (have them ground to give a smooth, even surface), the uneven rotor face on the new pads may squeal.
