Hi,  
  
  
  
 I leased a VW Tiguan around 6 months ago. Right from day one I noticed sometimes when I applied the brakes just before the car came to a stop I would feel the car pulse once. It feels like either the brakes are doing a single pulse like the pulsing you get when ABS kicks in or the automatic transmission is doing something wrong down shifting to a lower gear.  
  
  
  
 Later I realized this happens mostly in the mornings and dissapears after driving for 30 minutes or so.  
  
  
  
 Any ideas what this could be?
