Default Brakes - clunk and squeak

Vehical - 1996 A4 (B5) Quattro 2.8 Automatic.

I just put in new ceramic brake pads and had rotors turned in the front.

Now since the change it is a constant squeak squeak squeak, when I am not on the brakes but mostly goes away when I do hit them. But the next stumper is also since the change it makes a clunking noise sort of like a bad strut mount but it is not.

I am at wits end with this i have no idea how to solve the problem.

Any imput would be much apreciated and and answers will be tried.

REWARD LEADING TO SOLVING THIS ISSUE

Thanks Sammy~D

your inner brake pad is loose. take things apart and pry the 3 fingers on the back of the inner pad apart and put it back together. as for squeaking, try some anti squeal. ceramic brakes are supposed to be noisy.

i don't need a reward cuz i'm a boss
