well i got pads today, ceramic. and still i have the grinding problem...

I noticed taking apart the brakes that the top caliper pin (with the square head instead of the oval), the one with a little rubber sleeve was pretty difficult to remove, also after being greased still had little to no movement....

Sorry for not responding. Without actually being able to look at and test your brakes these diagnosis your getting may lead to false avenues.
