if fitted check that the spring pad/retainer is the correct way round, its the metal u shaped thing with fingers that push down on the pads. the longer bars on the fingers should go on top of the piston side pads. if you dont do this then the shorter bars on the fingers will jam the brake pad.

i hope that you used RRG to assemble the pistons.
