Default VW brake noise?

I have a 99 passat 1.8 turbo, 4 wheel disc brakes, ABS. I had the front
pads (not rotors) replaced at 80k miles by a local mechanic. I had the back
pads and rotors replaced at 110k miles by the VW dealer.

At 120k miles, the front brakes started a 'grinding' noise as the car comes
to a stop (no vibration felt in the pedal). Examination visually of the
front brakes doesn't appear to show anything wrong.

Suggestions???
