Hi, car is around 130k. Even after replacing front rotors. I did not change the brake pad. Because it is still has more than 80 percent left. It is oem pad. there is a vibration from the front end while braking. It is much better after I got tire replace also. but there is still a very noticeable vibration. I can feel it is from right front. It make noise too. At the beginning I only resurface the rotor. But it didn't work. So I replace new one. Problem is still not solve. I drive high speed not hear any noise front suspesion area, couldbthis relate to lower ball joint? Or hub. I did notice a little bit run out when I pu new rotors on. Anybody got the same problem? I order one set brand new pad. It is on the way. But I am not sure if this will help.

check your wheel balancing in the front!

new rotors with used pads? Not sure if that's a good idea. Factory wheels or aftermarket market?

is the vibration only while driving or when braking?

do you feel the vibration in the foot pedal or in the seat?

Also ask that wheels are checked for run out

Sounds like the new pads will solve the problem. I had the same issue. Keep us posted.

only on braking. the vibration is from pedal and steering wheel. i never feel it was from the seat.

hmmm... it could possibly be the bearing...? ive heard that the IS bearings are known to wear out quite commonly...

i think about the bearing too. but worn bearing will usually make noise when driving. but my car runs quite.
