go through this thread and tick everything off, could be glazed rotors as well
but considering it disappeared after a wheel alignment i'm going to guess it's a suspension component.

take it in to wilkinsons, they had a look and told me what was wrong free of charge

afaik they can't machine slotted rotors, and it's weird that it made it worse for you.

also bump for rossco

Who said you cant machine slotted rotors, my mate works at Brakes west and he machines slotted rottors all the time.

For those curious about machining rotors...

Even DBA say you can machine any of their rotors within specification.

you can usually tell if they're glazed by looking at the rotors, you don't really need to take the wheel off
