Check to make sure one of the pads is not wearing more than the other, usually the inside one. If so you'll want to lube the slide pins/bolts...may want to do it anyhow it may not have progressed that far to uneven wear.

IT USUALLY MEANS YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A WHEEL BEARING SOON, BECAUSE ONE OF YOUR WHEEL SPEED SENSORS FOR THE ABS IS DROPPING OUT AT LOW SPEEDS, CAUSING THE ABS MODULE TO THINK THE WHEEL IS LOCKED UP AND HENCE THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSATIONS. MY 01 DOES IT TOO AND IT RATHER ANNOYING:hello:
