With 115K on it, it wouldn't surprise me if it is a caliper.

My 240 rear caliper makes a whirring sound sometimes, usually after a heavy rain. Going to replace it in Sept. I think one piston is stuck inside the caliper and makes occasional noise. Take a good look at your rotor. My rotor has a band of rust on the outside where that caliper piston isn't contacting the rotor. Brakes pull a little when hit hard and vibrate some too...I think a seized front caliper could be causing your front end vibration.

Are you located in the Cuttyhunk area? Great place! I'm in Falmouth.
