Did you get the rotors machined? You really need to...
Then do the brake bed in procedure...
Hey guys got my rear brake pads changed last week (pads bought from GSL rally) on my GTI just last week and the squealing noise does not go away. The noise was appearing before the pads got changed but I thought it's coz they got worn down.
What could be the problem??
P.S. it's driving me up the wall coz the noise is not a faint one either....

No I didn't, but the guys at where I got them changed didnt say anything. Maybe I should just get a pair of new ones from GSL rally fellas?? I already changed the front ones looks good and works a treat too...
So annoyed!!!!
Discs should be machined or replaced 95% of the time. You might get away with it if you are using a really soft pad. Generally you won't though.
All the brake dust, dirt & corrosion cleaned away, especially on sliding or mating surfaces
Slider pins should be lubricated.
Copper grease or similar applied sparingly to the surfaces where the pad touches the caliper or the brake piston
clean & lubricate sparingly any shims or springs. Don't leave any parts on the bench.
bed-in pads to disc surface
