Default Rear caliper creaking

I just replaced my rear pads and rotors. Before the replacement the rotors were really rough and the brakes were grinding and creaking. Now, even with the new brakes, the driver side caliper creaks. I only notice it at low speeds in parking lots. When I had it apart everything looked good, there were no leaks, and the sliders were fine (and I regreased them). Anybody else have this problem?

When you put the new pads in, did you put the anti squeal goo on the backs of them?

Didn't need to...these pads have anti-squeal pads built into them. They brakes aren't squealing. Even when sitting still, if I pump the brakes with the car in gear, the caliper will creak.
