Chances are, the squeel is actually the back of the pad and not the friction surface.
It vibrates inside the caliper and squeels against the piston. Some pads come with a sticky rubber pad to stop it, if not, you can put a small amount of copper grease on the back of the pad...... Craig Rogers 2007 Puma 110 XS 2011 Evoque Coupe Dynamic Lux www.craigrogers.photography |

Yup, mine scream like a banshee most of the time, it is loud enough to make people look round. I have tried all the conventional rememdies, and the sqeal always come back eventually.
They also rattle when not appplied as you drive along, and this too seems impossible to cure. |

Only solution I found was a new set of pads

Get occasional squealing but it's very quiet. Doesn't bother me. Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.

My offside front squeals occasionally. It's not bad, so it doesn't bother me, and also it's intermittent.
