This only happens when do high speeds then slowing down (usually around 80-90) but depends how hard i break.
If i break hard i get a sort of grinding noise coming from the front left break disc that gets a deeper noise when you apply even more, car doesnt shake or anything when this happens.
Breaks look fine, ie plenty of pads left and only a little edge you can feel on the break discs, any ideas what may it may possibly be  Wheel bearinings are fine too

yes you can around 1/2 cm left easily.
is it a question of removing the breaks and giving them a clean

i didn't, had it on a nova, someone said it was probably a stone or something.
wasn't quite sure how it'd fit, but i left it anyway, kept blowing it with an air line too
went away, but had some marks on discs

Just get a pressure washer and blast the pad with it, might loosen up any crap in there.
