Grinding while Braking?
I just noticed that every 5 or 6 times I brake, I get a slight griding/vibration. I can't tell if it's coming from the front or the rear.
I have cross-drilled rotors, I'm quite honestly, I'm not sure if they can be turned or not. It wouldn't be a bearing, would it? Thanks!

I had a slight intermittent vibration coming from my left front which I feared was a bearing but it turned out to be a warped rotor and hung up caliper.
After doing a complete brake overhaul (rotors, pads, caliper rebuild, hoses, and fluid) no more noise!

Can also be a rock stuck in-between the dust shield and the rotor.
