Will a warped rotor make a scraping sound against the brake pads when moving? I replaced the front pads to see if that was the problem and i still get a what sounds like scrapeing. last, if i replaced the rear brake pads shouldnt my pull of my e-brake be very little, i was able to crank that sucker down quite a bit (over 10 clicks my estamate). Should that not be very tight now?

warped rotor will do only pulsation and vibration on high speed.

scrapping may be from dust guard (metal part around rotor that's not moving) check if it's touching anything.
