It will lump up in the rotors when you first again use the brakes. Especialy to the outside of the rotor edge. Sounds silly I know.
Try a real good heavy power wash of the rotors. Dry them with brake use.

Or you could just open the covers and check the pads.
Thanks Franc. It's at the mechanic now being looked over. Just waiting for a call from them to hear what they think it is.

I would have taken the wheels off today and looked it over really good, however I didn't want to waste too much time self diagnosing the problem since I plan on driving the car 300 miles next weekend.
