While you've got the bearing out, carefully push the bearing assembly off the carrier and check out how much grease the manufacturer put into it. The offshore-made bearings are notorious for being assembled virtually dry, with just a tiny amount of lube.

A squirt of a high temperature lubricant like Lubriplate white grease has cured many an ill where noisy throwout bearings are concerned.
