my dak does the same thing... but it's the back brakes... They lock up
first time I hit the in the morning... usually @ the stop at the end of my
street..
I always thought it had to do w/ the booster, but not sure because it
doesn't take very much pressure to do it.. until you use them a couple of
times..
