Creaking brake caliper
Front passenger side caliper sounds like the hull of a pirate ship when I pump the brakes.
*Creak *Crick *Creak *Crick
It's not the pads or rotors, it'll even do it if I'm in Park. Disassembled and greased up the travel path of the pads and that made no difference. Pins seem to be traveling fine. They seem to be operating fine otherwise. Anybody else encounter this? Think it should be a cause for concern?

Just a thought probably not the problem but try bleeding that caliper.
May have some air in it or dirt or some thing. You could just try cracking
the bleeder and compressing the pad with it on the car. Should'nt take
long and who knows may get lucky.

Did you try applying brake caliper grease to the pins?

Grease the caliper slide pins, the shims that the pads contact and the back of both inboard and outboard pads.
