OP: Do you stand with your foot on the brake after you've been using the brakes heavily? eg. Traffic light after a fun spirited drive.

How often do you wash your car/wheels? If you dont scrub your rotors by dragging the brakes for about 100m after washing your wheels/car, the brake dust between the pad and disc turns into a paste which fills the tiny pores of the disc, often leaving a pad 'imprint'. This will cause a vibration when braking.

Genuine pads and discs rarely do it. But some brand combinations are particularly bad at it. Bit of trial and error
