I think the damn truck is haunted! Shortly after the rotor replacement I heard and felt vibration. Then I noticed the noise and vibration seemed to be more quiet and less noticeable. For the past three days, I haven’t heard or felt anything. However after writing this, I will take it on a spin and it will probably roar.

I had to replace my front driver wheel bearing at 29k miles... but, a bad wheel bearing will be a constant groan, it doesn't come and go.

The first 2 of the 3 I had done were constant noise makers.

The third bearing had a noise that came and went, so they didn't get it at first. I had to take it back. It made noise mostly in right turns, but not always.

Can't belive the 4th one never crapped out.

Keep us posted when you finally find the culprit. Hopefully you can help someone else out with similar issues!

As I previously said, it did come back. However, it was only once and it occurred with a lot of city stop and go driving. Although it occasionally occurs when I am not braking, most often it happens after I apply the brakes. I have never noticed it at speeds greater than 40. I just do not want to get stuck with a huge bill if I can prevent further damage. I can live with the noise and vibration, but if it is something that can be nipped in the bud, I want to nip it.

They aren’t ceramic.

Are you just discovering that carbon brake rotors exist? My post was to point out that there are no carbon ceramic rotors available for the raptor. But go on...
