When replacing pads, it's best practise to either open the bleed nipple on the calliper being worked on when pushing the pistons back or remove fluid from the reservoir first. The excess fluid has to go somewhere...

Hi there! Sorry that I don't quite understand what you mean. I bought the new front pads from BMW, so they are original BMW pads, not anything aftermarket. I am not sure if the original pads are incorporated with anti-squeal mechanism on the inner pad. I just installed the inner pads onto the calipers by clipping them in.
