I have read couple of threads concerning this issue. However I could not conclude a resolution. My driveshafts are not bent. My front wheel bearings don't seem to be loose. I did jack up the front end and tried moving the wheels 12 to 6 oclock and the opposite ways. I think My rotors are the main source of the problem. Here's why. Couple months ago, as I was driving home from work, I noticed this noise coming from some where in the front. It felt like some thing loose. It only occured after driving for a while and in between 15 to 35 mph. Yeah I thought of that exhaust shield being loose but it was intact. So during the course of wheel rotation, I noticed that the driver side front caliper was loose about 1 to 2 mm. Passenger side was pretty tight. So I tightened it and the loose noise problem went away. But I was noticing this new front end vibration problem occuring only when I would press on the brake after driving for a while. And now vibration with braking is a regular thing but high speed vibration randomly is staring. Mostly from the left side. My guess is, that caliper was intentionaly turned loose, as I bought the truck from my local (POS) Nissan Dealer. I think they did that because they did not want to change the rotors, calipers and brake pads. That way the vibration wouldn't occur. Anyway, I am thinking of replacing the front rotors and pads. What do ya'll think?
I know the root cause of the vibration can be any thing. I am just starting from a very obvious reason.
