yea its the grease made for doing brakes, also the last set of pads I bought came with new rubber pieces I just didn't end up putting them in with the brakes. do u think that when I painted the calipers I could have gotten some of the paint on or inside those rubber parts causing the noise?

Highly doubt it. Just adjust and you should be fine. Your guides don't cause squealing. They either work or don't. When they don't the brakes will still and you will start smelling burned brake pads

ok thanks, one more question does anyone remember off top of their heads if the longer of the cali[er guide bolts goes on the top or the bottom? if im remembering correctly its the bottom but I want to make sure before installing it just to avoid any issues.

I thought that I read somewhere that these caliper pins should NOT be greased. Didn't grease mine, nor did they appear greased from the factory. Have not had any problems.Bently manual states "Clean brake caliper guide bolts. Replace ones which are not in perfect condition. Do not grease" See 340-12.

Small one goes on top

ok so ifits not pins, or the pads sticking what would be causing it to squeal only while going 30-40mph an mostly only whe heading a tiny bit to the right, and again like the last time when I slightly apply the pedal the noise will stop sometimes until the next time it start sometimes till I replease pedal?

It would not be the pins or pads. Check your pad brackets. They are misaligned or check your dust cover. It is one of the 2. You are looking for something dragging on the rotor. Your brakes will not make the noise you are describing nor will the pins.

Pad Bracket?, What piece is that?an it seems like when I fix one side the other side starts making the noise

I'm sorry I'm thinking of my other car. The BMWs have a spring clip. Have you looked at the dust cover. Make sure it's pulled away from the rotor if you accidentally bent it

A remote possiblity could be a kink or internal obstruction in the rubber brake lines. High pressure would get through, yet they would be slow to bleed.
