scraping noise

I had the brembo rotors from southwest autoworks installed about 1 1/2 months ago and I have had a scraping noise when ever I turn. I don't know what is scraping and I have checked the heat shields to make sure they were not rubbing. Some one please help. Thanx

where?

I don't know if this is your problem but on my 89SE I had a scraping noise that occurred after quite a bit of mileage (150k). The noise would happen whether I went straight or turned (although it was more pronounced when turning). You could only really hear it when going slow. Turned out that the bearings on my front wheels went. Perhaps when they replaced the rotors they screwed the bearings.

There could be a lot of other things causing your problem and my car did not have new rotors put on recently. You may be hearing the pads against the slotting (presuming you got slotted rotors).

Hope this helps.
