Make sure there's no grease suck in the end of the bracket, can use a pick or even wire to clean it out and make sure nothing is trapped/shoved inside. Brakes can be a pita when they make noise after replacing them. I've had that happen a few times and often slapping a little lube under the clips sometimes shuts them up.
On second thought, are you sure the noise you're hearing is coming from the front? I often hear complaints of brake noise when coming to a relatively hard stop, mostly after the car has slowed down and is almost at a stop. Most think it's the front but often it's the rear brakes are grooved. But that's usually more common on the older models with the smaller drums and ratchet style adjuster.
I will try to understand if the noise is from rear brakes, I never checked it and on the front this is the 3rd set of pads. The noise is really the same, it will be strange to have the exact same noise on front after changed rotors and pads.
Something that I noticed is that the OEM inner pad had a back plate on it but this one doesn't. Should I apply brake grease where the piston contacts the pad? The previous pads also didn't have it and I never heared brake noises during years.
I also replaced the brake fluid some time before, but I think there is no air on the system. The pedal is feeling really good. But I used the one person bleed method. Can this relates some how with this noise if for some reason have air on one of the lines (or rear lines)?
