Also the pad pins need to be cleaned and a bit of copper grease on them. There is such a small movement that it doesn't take much for them to be inefficient. Cable stretching, old brake fluid, friction on pins. One of my pads is worn on one side and looked like a wedge, so was probably dragging on one pin.
