grippy brakes pads near complete stop

hi guys,

do you guys know what causes the brakes to be grabby and NOT release smoothly right before the complete stop, or right when I'm about to accelerate? the brakes work fine, but right at the end point - the final inch, i usually try to stop the car smoothly...and either there's still too much torque w/ engine at idle, or the brake bads are not smooth? (the brakes are only about 15k miles old and they work great).

p.s. i'm having this problem only on the R500, but do not have this problem on my S55 or E320 cabriolet.
