x5 annoying creaking sound all round.

hi guys i have a 2001 x5 thats got a annoying creaking sound all round.

if i place my foot on the break then very slowly creep forward or back theres creaking comming from all 4 brakes anyone have any ideas what it might be.

i have checked the fluid level and that seems ok.

the noise seems to be comming from the 2 front discs and the 2 rear drum all round?

i took a video in dark, you can hear the sound.

It's your brakes, I have had this noise on every car I have ever owned. So for me this noise is normal. I wouldn't worry

Try adding anti-squeal paste to the contact points of the anti-rattle clip, that seemed to quiet my brakes up. I did this while replacing brake pads and rotors though, so I'm not 100% sure that's what fixed the problem.
