It sure sounds like something is scraping metal-to-metal but hard to tell from the audio. If you don't have the resources to check the pads and rotor yourself, go to

It sure sounds like something is scraping metal-to-metal but hard to tell from the audio. If you don't have the resources to check the pads and rotor yourself, go to a reliable brake shop and get them to check everything out. From the sound of it, you will probably need to turn the rotor and possibly replace the pads. While you have it in the brake shop, have them do a thorough inspection of the front brakes.
At 35000 miles, I would turn or replace both rear rotors and and replace both sets of pads. YMMV It could be the parking brake.

I had some free time today so I jacked up the car and took of the wheel. The sound was just the dust shield scrapping against the rotor. I bent it back and all is well now. The rotor is worn down in the area where the shield was rubbing against it but I will be doing brake pads and rotors all around in a month or two. Thanks.

Here are some pictures in case this ever happens to anyone else. A new short block was installed in my car two weeks ago and I guess this happened when my mechanic put everything back together.
