I just put new pads and rotors on all around my 2003 Vibe GT.Both back wheels have intermittently made noise like a rubbing dust shield. When I put the new rotor on the passenger side rear when I spun it it made a horrible noise. I looked at the hub and there was clear evidence of the previous rotor rubbing on a metal piece right behind the e-brake assembly. I put the rotor on hoping it wouldn't rub, but it does, and very badly. Long and the short is I have no idea what to do. Is it possible to move the piece that is scraping? Any other ideas? I'm attaching some picture of what I'm talking about.Here are more pictures as well, including the rotor if you can see where there is rubbing on the next inside level from where the pads are...http://picasaweb.google.com/JohnPGannon ... mfTA&pli=1#

When you did the brakes did you use a caliper piston tool to screw in (retract) the piston? If not, that is very likely the problem.BTW: Part of your link is missing. I found your page by adding a .jpg to the link, but not the pictures set you wanted us to see.
