hey guys - i recently installed brembo rotors with hawk pads front and back, and about a week later the rear started squeaking like crazy just rolling and while driving. when its rolling i could tell that it was intermittent, squeaks about once a rotation. and when i apply the brakes or ebrake the squeaks stop.
after searching through these threads i saw others with the same squeak problem as well as their opinion on what it was that was causing the noise. so i retorqued all the bolts, inspected the isolators, bushings etc. yet it still continued to squeak. so after narrowing the problem down to the brakes themselves i just got back from taking the car the firestone service center and they told me with out a doubt the rear rotors were warped which is whats causing the squeaks. they quoted me $79 to turn just the rear rotors.
my question: what they told me sounds like it could be the problem but why would these rotors already be warped?! i went through the bedding proceedure and its been light street driving since the install. also how much should turning the rotors actually cost?
