    Check the clips that the pads ride on in the bracket. I noticed one of ours was touching the OD of the rotor. I didn't do anything about it yet to see if it fixes the squeal we have.

    When you are dead, you don’t know you are dead. It is difficult only for others. It is the same way when you are stupid.

    Sounds like the rotors are glazed from an improper bedding-in when first installing them.
