vibration? shudder? creak? squeak? rattle? squeal? shimmy? knock? clunk? bang?

Mine has a really annoying vibration/rattle at 1500rpm, but it's just one of my heat shields.

Wheel bearing?
Rock in the Caliper?
Try reversing and applying your brakes if that is the case, it should knock it right out.
