Ok this makes no sense anymore... I have done countless of brake jobs on many cars, including a few on this 01 accord. I did the rear pads and rotors today, and for some reason the inner pads on both sides were not fully onto the rotors... Thought that was odd, and of course, after some driving it started making this awful grinding noise. I decided that maybe there's a defect with the rotors and pads I got, so I put the old ones back as they were fine (just running low on pads but still safe enough to drive thousands of km), and the noise didn't go away... I thought ok dust covers might be hitting, so I removed both, and still there... The noise goes away when turning or I noticed if I pull the handbrake slightly while driving.
What gives? What did I do wrong? I'm so lost as I have done pads and rotors on this car several times and I've never had this issue
