So I recently replaced my rear brake caliper due to damaging the old one when a bolt backed out. (Learned my lesson and used loctite.) I couldn't find a OEM replacement caliper so i purchased one from O'Reilly's.
Since then there has been a noise coming from the caliper while driving the car (not braking). I took it apart and this is what I found.
What I am wondering is, is the pad not making contact the rotor evenly? or is the rotor making contact with the caliper bracket.
I am thinking the pad is not making contact evenly but not sure if the rotor is ruined.
