thats happened to me before. i dont think its a big deal. There is some sort of spray that you spray on new brakes... not sure what kind of spray it is.. but it may help.

Did you bed them properly?
Did you use any anti-squeal compound on the back of the pads?
Did you adjust the wear indicators correctly?

if you're using HP+ pads they will squeal thanks to the metal in the brake pad compound. Other brakes squeal as much because of the similar compound.
regardless, more details will need to be said for a proper diagnosis

I have brembo slotted and gransport 6 pads on my DC4, it squeeks a little, but it's definitely from the dust, once I clean my wheels it stops for a few days and then comes right back. But it certainly stops great.

first are the pads chamffered on the edges and did you break the rotors and pads in right? doing 60-10mph like 5 or 6 times then driving for a while with little to no stopping. helps work the breaks in to your car. but check the edges first.

OK, Now to answer some question's: the rear brakes where not done, and about 20 minute's after having the front brakes installed i HAD to brake really hard and fast on the freeway[I HAD TO BRAKE FROM ABOUT 50MPH TO A STOP , TO AVOID HITTING THIS IDIOT WOMEN IN A CLK!!] ] I recently removed the pads and applyed some anti-noise lupe and the noise went away for about 1 week , but the noise returned,i did not apply any on the shims.
