Brake noise after pad replacement
I replaced my pad this weekend. Lubed it like crazy so it wouldnt make noise. Put everything together and drove it around without a problem. The morning after, i noticed that it makes a noise like the pad is rubbing, but only in reverse when im not touching the brakes. If I put a little pressure on it, it doesnt make a noise. I plan to take it apart this weekend and give it another look. Can anyone give me a suggestion as to what might be the problem so I dont take it apart, put it back together again and the noise is still there? Thanks in advance!

I had a shop replace both my front rotors and pads about a year ago and when I got my car back it was making a horrible noise, as if the brakes were rubbing (same thing as you it sounds like). So it probably is not the rotors.
I took it back and he fixed it pretty quickly. Not exactly sure what he did, but he made some adjustment to the calipers and/or pads I believe.
sorry I'm not more help, but don't go out right away and replace the rotors is all I'm saying...
