At a guess mate i'd say a sticking brake calliper piston/pistons, which sticks when you brake normally so it pulls to the side, but under heavy braking it has enough pressure to force the piston out so it brakes more even? You'll probably find when you do the pads it'll be fine for a bit, until the pads start to wear then it'll start to happen again? so they might just need a good service?

the pads are running a bit low thats the reason why i asked the first question on thi forum, about which pads are ideal for my car.
CLICK ME?
It sounds like the pistons could do with a clean, so that there moving freely within the caliper itself?
The new pads should help, but you'll probably find it'll return after a bit of use when the pads wear down again?

pistons dont really suffer from sticking mate wouldnt hurt to clean them though, but the slides do seize a lot......
