More crappy parts...grrr

So the BMW has been making odd cranky noises lately. Sounding very unhealthy going down these fine MN roads we have. So I finally got to investigating:
On the left are the caliper bolts from the rebuilt caliper I put on a few months ago. On the right are the original BMW pins that I had the foresight to keep!
It appears to me that the originals are some grade of stainless, and have a hex drive, instead of the rebuild pins that have my arch-enemy the torx drive!

I am going to try out using the original pins and seeing if that helps the clunk, wish me luck.
