Hi MorrisOx, sorry I have not been back for a while.
I also have had disks and brakes all round, and it was ongoing since I had the car around 18 months now, ignored it at first as very intermittent and not that noisy, last 2 months have been terrible.
I have resolved the noise, mostly.
Got fed up and just told the garage to take apart the rear brake caliper, clean it and make sure there was some copaslip on when they put it back together.
They did not actually rebuild the caliper but did give it a thorough clean and apply the copaslip.
Now it has only returned on 2 occasions , once after being forced to brake very heavily(by an idiot in a Jag), it continued until I finished my journey. Came out after work and no noise.
2nd time very quielty ie no where near as bad as previously and only lasted a few seconds. It has been nearly 2 weeks since i had this done.
Conclusion it must have been the brakes all along.
I am taking it on a long journey this weekend so will report back after that.
