    After 2500 miles Truck Developed a low speed rubbing sound from the back left pad with light braking below 30 Mph... Definately pad rubbing the rotor as it turns... 5K oil change I complained to dealership and they turned the rotors... Rubbing went away for a couple of days and then returned. At 10K oil change the dealership changed back brake pads and shims..Presto, for 2500 miles ZERO noise... Then, just like before, it started again at low speeds with cool temps outside... At this point I am thinking that the caliper housing or the pistons are the root cause... Could be after the pads and shims wear in a bit ( 2500 ) miles there is enough play in the housing to let the pad move and thus rub before applying full brake pressure and silencing the rubbing noise...
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!!
