Default Why do I still have squeeky brakes!?

I have stripped/cleaned the callipers so the pistons don't stick and put copper grease on the back of the pads and the still bloody squeek at very low speeds..why?

I have searched but can't find anything other that what I have tried.

Default squeak

I had a squeak that sounded like it was coming from the brakes. In the end it was the rubber seal of the speed sensor rubbing against the wheel at very low speeds (ie wheeling it in and out of the garage). A "small" amout of WD40 between the sensor and the wheel, was all that was required to sort it.
