Can't remember having metal plates on mine unless they are shims, never changed my rears so not much help

Anyway, have you put plenty copper grease on the back, sometimes the edge of the pads will need to be chamfered or they just need bedding in to build up a 'surface' of pad material on the disc.

yep, clean and re-fit the original steel shims.............unusual to get noise issues with the rear so would check for pad binding, etc.
