Squeeky brakes

Hi,
Recently I have changed my front discs and brake pads with new OE parts.
Since then brakes are squeaking, specially when cold. Now dealers replaced pads with new ones ,but sound is same any help would be appreciated!

You may need to clean/lubricate pins, pads, metal shims, etc.

They probably didn't lubricate the back of the new pads, or failed to apply enough, before they were installed. That's the only part of the brake that would squeak.

No lube is probably the answer, but it might be worth bedding the new pads, too. Find a quiet road or empty stretch of highway and do some hard braking. A Google search will give you many variations of procedure.
