Honestly this is why I stayed away from R1 , I opted for Brakeperformance.com instead because their customer service is good and they lifetime warranty their premium rotors.My Magnum and my Jeep both have dimpled n slotted rotors and I love them....

Did you get the new front pads yet?, Hopefully a clean and adjust will help, and don't get cheap get the spray on lube. i think you might have gotten a little somewhere it's shouldn't have been.

No they sent the wrong pads to me but I want to take everything apart and systematically go through things to eliminate pieces. That way I can either fix or nail down what is causing the problem. I will get the spray stuff.

Big thanks to Marc for helping me out today. We took everything apart and cleaned it all. Right before we put it together we noticed a crack in the driver side rotor that was pretty big. I took pics with my phone so sorry about the crappy pics but R1 is sending me a new rotor asap. This brake job has truly been hell. I still have a slight noise in the drivers side and will see if the new rotor cures that. Again I can't thank Marc enough for the help. Rep coming your way.
