The same sound and feel occurs when you release the brake pedal. It's less noticeable if you feather the brake pedal at the end of the stop and at start. Brakes work very well and only have about 12K miles on them and they are pads and rotors from BMW.
At one point I had a BMW tech look at it and he asked what I used to wash the car and how often and mentioned something about the brakes glazing??
Any insights and comments welcome.
Thanks

if it's kinda like a grinding sound, then yeah, i get that every now and then...i think it has something to do with how hot or cold the brake area is. i notice it a lot more when i first start driving the car, but it seems to go away after I drive for a little while. don't know if it's a problem or not since it happened on my previous car too.
