John, Did you install the shims behind the pads? They are designed to help prevent such noises. If you did not then I would recommend them. If you did, and they still squeak, you might try some of the anti squeal compound from the auto parts store and squirt some on the back of the pads against the shim and a little between the shim and the caliper piston.

I have brake squeak, front. Foot on the brake and it goes away. Brakes and rotors are recent, all other brake parts new. I have been told that it comes from glaze on the pads/rotors, and the glaze can be somehow taken off, but that I should not worry about it. Car stops just fine, no loss of brake fluid, etc. Should I do something to solve the squeaking problem? John Flynn 78 Spitfire Your messages not reaching the list?
