When you say piston plate, are you referring to the shim between the piston and the pad?
If so that's possibly where the sqeal is coming from, a wipe of coppaslip on both sides of the shim should do the trick, or could be the pad(s) touching the caliper and vibrating gently where it touches, setting up the squeal.
Before you do that though....
I've had a nose on the Toyota forum and it seem there are modified shims available that might work, but new modified pads also might be the order of the day.
If your car has a decent service history and the main dealer doesn't want to try for goodwill for you (be surprised if they don't Toyota dealers are good at customer care), then you could try ringing Toyota head office at Burgh Heath, they may well authorise a goodwill warranty job.
