scraping noise?

I jsut got my 240 and i have this scraping noise only when i go in reverse, i think it is only when i apply the brakes in reverse, but i will here this scraping noise from the rear, on the mechanical report i have when i bought the car it said the rear rotors were a little worn, would this scraping sound be because of the rotors?

Re: scraping noise?

if the pads put a lot of scrapes in the rotors by running them metal on metal then look into replacing those too
