If its just the rears then try fitting some anti-squeal shims between the piston and pad, I had to make from a Lockheed kit by cutting down the existing shim, but the brake squeal, which was of angry elephant proportions was reduced to cross mouse levels

I got fed up with trying to stop mine. Eventually went on its own.

Could be. Ive heard people complain of random squeal, new pad squeal, old pad squeal (I think) and also the "they all do that sir"

I just pray mine will settle down when the pads have worn in.
