Changed rotors and pads today and when took for a test notice the sound of something rubbing (like metal to metal) but can't pinpoint it. Any help?

How loud is it? Because i know when i changed my brake pads and rotors i could hear a slight metal rubbing but only when I was driving next to a building or in a parking garage. It went away after about 200 miles. It just took some time for the brake pads to wear in.

Yea it's very light but annoying but thanks I'm sure that's prob what it is

Probably just the dust sheild. Pinpoint the wheel and pul lit off for inspection. Snug the lugnuts back down on the rotor after yo upull the wheel, this will put the rotor in it's normal position, at this point you can inspect the dust sheild clearance, and if necessary use a screwdriver or something to bend the sheild away a bit.

I checked it but it still makes the sound after I apply the brake but slowly disappears

happens often when you change the rotors and pads, give it about a week or so and see if it stops

Yeah try a burn in (google how to do this properly). Sometimes they go away, sometimes you need to add shims. Sometimes you need to grind the edge of the pad (light bevel)

theres a ton of things that can cause it, dust sheild is the most likely.
