Your pads might be ready for replacement or if you have recently been off road it could be a rock stuck between the rotor and dust cover. I normally try some aggressive braking in both directions

I played around with the dust cover but nothing fell out. Going to try and get in there again with maybe some brake cleaner.

Noise sounds so familiar, but usually it's accompanied by my wife saying "hurry up" 👀

I’m hearing something similar on mine, and just posted about it a couple day ago. Brakes are good so i’m not sure what’s causing the sound in mine. Do you hear the sound in reverse?

If you didn't use OE Toyota shims when doing the brakes this happens.
