Default Squeaky Brakes

Anyone know what would cause this? They're fine when riding and don't squeak. I only notice it when parking up.

I took the pads out and cleaned the back of them. Cleaned the springs and pins too. Plenty life in the pads. Discs are getting low but still above the minimum thickness.

I cleaned all the disc bobbins too, although I don't think that is anything to do with the sound now. Sounds like it is the pads rubbing on the discs.

Calipers are probably due a strip down but the pistons are moving fine and there isn't any corrosion in there.
