welcome to the forum. spongy brake could be form the booster if the diaphram is going weak, but normally air in the system. Did you bleed it backwards from the cylinder to the resovoir. sometimes need a brake bleed pot to do this. If the brake creeks only when you step on it, it could be the back linings rubbing against the back rub, normally there is a film of white greese to prevent the creeking. If there is a grinding noise it could be the the front brake pad, the pad backing metal loose and touching/rubbing on the hub, back brake dusty. Where is the noise coming from approx? does it make noise when you step on the brake or sometimes.
