I posted the other day that after installing new rotors and struts last week, I was getting a pulsating feeling in the brake pedal and a noise coming from the driver's side wheel. Most suggested it was either a dirty rotor or pads. I cleaned the rotors and that helped just a very little bit. What would be the chance that the new Brembo rotor I installed was slightly warped? Could a brake shop be able to tell if that were the problem and should I have them turn it or just request another one from my supplier?

Thanks.
