Mine did that for months. Most annoying.---
Changed the pads and now it's totally silent.--- |

Hi Robert. remove the sliders clean then up so they are nice and shinny then smear them with some red rubber grease, also add a little ceramic grease to the back of the pads.

Sometimes the 3 prongs on the inner pad that recess into the piston dont fit tightly, the pad will work ok, but will have a vibration through the part of the spring claw that will make a lovely noise, worth checking the pad claws and bending them slightly if in doubt, as long as the claws grip properly.
