When do you change brake pads and rotors?
If they are warped, they need to be turned, if they are groved, they need to be turned. If they are glazed, they need to be turned. In general, if you are working on the brakes, they need to be turned.If they are too thin (not wide enough across) to be turned, they need to be replaced. Many newer rotors are not thick enough to be turned, so you just replace them every time you replace the brakes. Most auto parts retailers will measure the thickness of the rotors for you and tell you if they can be turned.

Did you use ceramic brake pads? If so, that could be the problem. Unless it's super bad, you don't really have anything to worry about. Next time, use semi metallic brake pads. Also if the rotors were not turned this will surely cause disk brake squeal.
