Default Front End noise

I've been getting some front end noise, more like metal to metal contact. It seems to be coming from the front driver side. It only occurs on bumpy roads or going over speed bumps. I thought I read somewhere that there was a tsb on the heat shield but I couldn't the info in the sticky section. I've checked the sway bar bushing and all the front suspension bushing. All is good. What else should I check? I'll try to get a sound clip of the noise.

More likely the dust shield, remove the wheels and grab a long flat head and wedge it behind the rotor. Theres a little bump that usually makes contact make sure theres enough spacing
