2008 2.0 fsi front brakes locking at complete stop
I have started having this problem in my 2008 2.0 fsi today. Every time I come to complete stop, front wheels grab hard. stopping distance is same as before. Braking power and everything is same as before. Braking isnt smooth anymore. Even at low speed ~2-5 mph when i press brake it stops fine but just at end it locks the brake and car luges forward. Any idea what can cause this? I touched the rotors after driving but they dont seem any warmer than regular. It only locks at 0mph. If I am making rolling stop at ~2 mph then braking is smooth.

For anyone having similar issue....
I sprayed antirust on my rotors and calipers to remove rust and it contaminated my brake pads and it caused them to grab hard. I cleaned my brake pads and it fixed the issue
