Anybody experience the problem where pads do not make full contact with the rotor after brakes were taken apart and put back together (not replaced though)?
I had brake pads that were contacting the rotor perfectly. The brakes were relatively recent. The brakes were taken apart and reassembled. Now the pads are not making full contact anymore.
This has happened to me twice already. I think it may have to do something with the practice of greasing the backs of pads. It's like shimming the pad with grease, and when that grease is disturbed later, everything is not the same as it was before.
Will this problem go away or should I try something to fix it? I don't want the rotors to warp because of this.
