That's probably why the warning is still on then

New Pagid discs pads fitted
There's a squeak when coming to stop , pads were copper greased etc. took to carwash a few days later maybe it came off when they jet washed the wheels...
Any ideas

It will be caused by the Pagid pads. I'm getting to the point of not using them because they do suffer with this issue.

We supply Mintex from TMD friction, TRW, and haven't had issues,

Pagid we get a few complaints of late which is strange because there made by TMD Friction same as our Mintex.

Take the pads back and swap them for textar. I doubt if the textar pads will squeak.
I personally would have only fitted genuine pads and discs from mb ( and they will discount them if you ask)

ECP said shouldn't be using copper grease
Guy mentioned something like caltex i think cost a few quid

ECP sell parts. They are not technicians.

Copper grease is a bit old school nowadays. There is better out there. The genuine mb allly grease is great.

Get the parts from MB. They will fit, have a two year warranty and are inexpensive.
