    Have you looked at each pad? maybe something became embedded? I still think pressure is building. Maybe RSpears has an idea to try. Get it hot and noisy and jack it up testing each wheel.

    Robot, maybe I can just duck tape that hose directly to my ear..lol

    In retrospect I may have installed the pads without any anti-squeal compound applied to the back of them. I'm thinking I did, but now I am starting to wonder? Using it used to be standard procedure in older cars, but I don't see much mentioned of it anymore.

    I'm just going to have jack it up again, and pull the pads off for a better idea if they are in fact the culprits or not. I'll let you know the results.
    Better pads than a rear end failing!
