If your pads are organic replace them with organic pads! I have a 98 Accord and replaced my pads with semi-metalic pads, well I had nothing but noise! I called honda and they told me that I was to use organic pads and that they sold them for 45.00 at the shop. I went to the local parts store and got them for 14.00 and now my brakes work fine! Good luck!
