Hello! I was having trouble with my car the other day when i was driving it. Out of nowhere i started hearing some squeaks and scraping when i break or when im slowing down.. Also my steering wheel starts to vibrate when i break or when i go over 60 mph. So i went to shop and got it checked, the guys at the shop told me that my rotor was probably warped and needed replacing. They quoted me 460 dollars to do it -.- so i was like no thank you. I went to autozone and picked up new rotors and breakpads and decided to do it myself. After everything.. its still making the scraping sound and my break are not working as good as they use too. can someone point me in the right direction i what to do.

check your shims and the little metal clips that hold the brake pads in. mine got bent and scratched a groove into my disc.
