You will need to remove the pads and put some copper grease on the back of them and also on the metal guides that hold the pads true in the calipers. Clean up the guides with some wet and dry paper as well.

Hi Grant, Did you find anything wrong with the brakes? My car has been making a grinding type noise since I got it. It's been in to the dealers twice and they say nothing wrong so it's going to an independant garage on Wednesday (Coull Cars)
