Default squeaking!!!

ive been getting a squeaking noise (sounds like an old wheelbarrow) on low speeds sometimes ive noticed over last few months, i recently installed new disks and pads all round and 2 new cv joints so it cant be to do with them or can it? could it be the diff, maybe it needs oil or something i dont really know much about it, any ideas...

it sounds like its coming from the wheels but not sure if its front or back or which side or could be all. there is nothing rubbing like suspension or disk guard but it does sound like a metal sqeak like if something needs oil or metal rubbing on metal...

do you think it could be anything to do with the cv joints or the disks and pads since theyre all new?

Could be one of the calipers sticking if you fitted new pads, had this on my classic check the rears they are known to stick.

ok will do, it only happens sometimes and only at low speeds, it wouldnt be anything to worry about would it? its just the new pads and disks settling in isnt it? theyve been on a few months but i only drive it at the weekends...
