Anyway, I think on the weekend I'm going to take the caliper apart and lube the pins etc and see if that has any effect. I'd love to think it IS the caliper but as they're fairly new I'm not convinced as of yet....
My "noises" disAPPEAread on a plymouth sundance when I had Brakemasters replace it back in '98 for 225$.

go ahead and do it.
