XJ 5.0 Supercharged Brake Squeal on First Bite
5.0 supercharged (the larger brakes). I have tried:
New rotors
New pads (change from semi metallic to ceramic)
Lots of brake lubricant on both slide pins and backs of pads
I get an obnoxious squeal on light pressure when braking >40mph-0mph. Left front only. Increased pressure stops the squeal.
Anything else I can try before replacing the caliper?

When I bought the car, the dealer put all new oem pads and rotors on the car. So for me, it always had a left front squeal on first bite (usually after warmed up)
I put ceramic Brembo pads on all the way around as I was so tired of the insane amount of dust from the oem semi metallic. The squeal seemed to temporarily go away, but now it is as bad as ever.
