I replaced my front Brake Calipers, brakes and rotors, I still have a squealing noise when I brake and it comes and goes at times. What could it be? I also heard it could be a bad CV Joint as well, as they say it also sounds like a brake noise, is this true?

check for rust on brakes or a dust shield hitting rotor. cv joints normally make noise all the time if you saw grease anywhere around axle then check it further

The noise happens when I depress the brakes lightly. I tried bleeding the brakes both front tires.

it may be coming from back and or rust causing the grinding noise. the squeal cold be because of the pads you used.
