Anyone know? Also, how much is it to turn 1 OEM rotor, usually?

I'm right at 21,000 miles, and there's a strange sound coming from my right front wheel. Metal on metal scraping while I am NOT braking. As soon as I press the brake pedal, it goes away. My diagnosis is that there's no pad there any more..

Zero,
I respectfully disagree. I have had this same condition on many of my cars. The fact that the noise goes away when he hits the brakes is a dead give-away to me. I know it doesn't make sense, but that's what I have experienced.
I am assuming that the noise that Lithiumax is hearing is that high pitched scraping metal /"wear indicator" noise. But like Zero said the only way to find out is to take that wheel off!
Just sharing,
