If you did something to that corner a few days ago, and all of a sudden you've got a noise, the first thing to rule out would be somethng related to the work you did.

If you changed the discs that means you must have removed the calipers from the upright as well as taken the pads out. Plenty of opportunity there to leave something a bit loose, and especially seeing as it's brakes, have a look at it ASAFP innit.

Not sure about the noise, but I hope you changed the pads when you done the disks.
