Could be as simple as taking the pads out, cleaning up the callipers and copper greasing the pads.

the Brembo front calipers are notorious as debris traps...........generally a strip & clean is all required making sure the internal pad guides are clean

amplified by "kwik fit" type places chucking new in without any checks or care and occassionally by poor or mis-matched materials
