Hi Lawrence,
The most likely cause of your brake squeal
is vibration between the pad backing plate and
the piston. 2 things can help you:
Put a bit of high temp disk brake antisqueal
compound (CRC - orange gook) on the back side
of the brake pad to 'glue' the pad to the caliper piston. Dont go
crazy with the stuff, just a
couple of dabs. The inner pad is the most likely
cuplrit.
I also like to replace the spring steel clips
that hold the pads in the caliper; they loose
their spring over time.
