    What kind of noise? Grinding, rubbing, clicking? Dirt in the drums?

    It's sounds like a grunt is about the only way to describe it. I haven't had it off-road much and never brake hard unless nessasary.

    I’ve have a squeak on mine that started around 25k or at least noticed. The sound it makes when the break pads are getting thin but I know they are fine. I’m not an agressive “breaker”. I coast to stops 100 yards away. I have noticed after i wash and detail and from some YouTube videos putting accessive tire shine / cleaner can get into the disc and drums making that sound. Cleaning Chemicals on rubbing metal parts can make some weird noises. Usually more noticeable at very low speeds and it having a slow rotation rate having a low grunt. I’m pretty sure that’s why mine squeaks.
    Just a thought?

    Mine “pops” for lack of a better term. Service manager says it’s the “organic” brake pads.

    Organic, grain free, free range break pads will do it every time.
