okay, so i just changed my rotors...

I did the pads as well, everything was done correctly. I live by the law of doing it once, and doing it right. However, with the new rotors, on the front driver side, there is a tocking noise when i stop (tick-TOCK) tock noise. I can feel it in my break pedal as well, and i had another member (an ace of trades) over this night to help me trouble shoot the problem...

At first i thought it to be a loose clip (between the caliper and the pad) but i have readjusted it 3 times, and with my buddy over we did it again. This time we bent the flex of the clip to ensure proper connectivity. However it still tocked...

It is a noise that you can not only hear, but feel as well in the pedal. It's driving me nuts. This was not an issue on the old rotors. Plus, i know for a fact that the rotors are not warped, it only does this on breaking.

could i get any ideas? help? something? WTF? theese are nice rotors and i dont wanna revert back due to this...

what about checking just the really simple stuff first? The rotor wouldn't show symptoms of being warped all the time if it was warped, it would (in my experience) primarily exhibit symptoms when breaking. Defective new rotors aren't terribly uncommon. Sometimes they can become that way just sitting on the shelf for a long period of time. Having them turned (if you didn't have them turned before putting them on) will tell you if they're warped or not.

Also, what about grease on the brake pad on the offending side? This'll screw up your braking too, big time from what I understand.
