It's in the dry, so contamination seems to be the consensus. I'll try cleaning rotors and see if that's any better, otherwise I guess wait and see if it goes away or new pads?
You can take a lighter to the pads, wipe the black gunk off and repeat a handful of times. Worked for me!
Good tip, ta - will give that a go!
