another brake issue

ive read all the other brake posts, just looking for a specific reason as to the issue...

-rolling to a stop on the brakes, truck surges a little.

-while coasting from 20 mph or less with no brake applied, i hear a rotational groaning, (like pads are rubbing once per turn on the rotor) but goes away once the brakes applied.

-rotors are dark colored from heat approx. 1/2 in all around.

-pads are fairly new.

so, powerstops are on the way,
does the other issues sound like the caliper pins or something else?

thanks always.

It sounds very simiklar to the Surge in Strokins thread from May and the general consensus seems to be the pins sticking and maybe warped rotors.
