Brakes a bit graunchy/lurchy just as you stop.

There is a little audible groan and a small lurch as I feather off the brakes and come to a gentle stop - ruins the smooth effect! Does anyone know how what causes it? Plenty of meat on the pads. 20k miles - disks like new.

Cheers

Originals I would have thought - no one has needed to swop disks on a this car yet due to wear according to dealer.

Thanks Wookie - sounds like a little root around over the Xmas break (ha!) is in order. I am quite a light braker (17mpg makes you tight!) and there is a lot of engine braking on offer so I think Plan A (a quick 'amble') sounds good as a first try. Remember having to do that with a Scooby on some temporary harsh pads once and it did fix the issue. Thanks for the advice. KF

Well its cured - all that was needed was to give it some beans! I'm normally really gentle on the brakes and lift off well in advance to slow down etc, so actually giving the brakes a bit of a workout (as suggested by Wokkie) when the opportunity arose has cured the issue. Cheers :-)
