lol....Sorry, even if you replace the shim's, it will eventually come back shortly after.

Would you mind sharing what pads and rotors you specifically got?

1.5 yrs with 17k miles and I don't have the reverse brake squeal on the 2010 G. However, it happens on the 08 M35 though.

Had the same issue from 5 - 20K.. got tired of it(dealership could not fix it) and fixed the problem. Currently at 60k and no Brake squeal in reverse for 40k.
Apply Following...
on all 4 corners of the metal backing plate of the pad and in between the shims .... also a thin layer on top of the shim's where it makes contact with the piston.
And presto no NOISE.
