Another thought, while cleaning/bleeding, pull/clean/lube the caliper carrier bolts.

also for every body that has brake problems try changing out the fluid the oe manufactors recommend every two years per change, brake fliud is hygroscopic in nature which means it will pull water out of the air and as every brake system is vented to the atmosphere it will eventually contaminate the entire system.
