I have replaces all my calipers and pads on the rear. I have a problem with a squeak when the brakes warm up and any slight turn to the right. I have taken the calipers off and found the slide out bolts are stuck. I grease the slide bolts (with brake grease) but still here the squeak. Just a few weeks ago I took the calipers off again and the slide out bolts are stuck again??? I cleaned all rear brake parts with simple green and took sand paper to the brake pads to rough them up a little. But I still here the squeak and its driving me nuts
Some one please help
Thanks

Yes i did check the shelds and there no where near the rotors. The rotors are new and i do have the clips in.... i thought the old ones were too loose (thinking that will fix the problem) so i replaced them with new ones

Ok.....time to check the wheel and hub bearing assm. Jack it up and shake it back and forth. If you have any movement.....it's bad and will let the rotor move enough to make the pads or the shields squeal.

Did you use "anti-squeak" lube in the piston when you replaced the pads? When trail braking or under light load, the pad vibrates really quickly between the rotor and the caliper seat creating a high frequency vibration or "sqeak". This lube (available almost anywhere) reduces or completely removes this noise. You should give it a try!
