Toyota Auris brakes?

A common fault with the Auris is rear brakes rubbing and squealing. Simple cure seems to be dismantle, clean and grease rear of brake pads.
So I thought I would have a go and looked for simple instructions on t'web. Looked and looked, found sites like just answer which give instructions for Auris drum brakes but my Auris and I think all of them has disc brakes!
So can someone please point me where I can find instructions? If not I will have a go without, how complicated can it be?

I did mine and it fixed it though it doesn't last long, I'll use some different grease/compound next time. Don't have a guide - brakes are only usually a handfull of bolts so just go by experience/intuition. If you move the pistons then you're likely to need a rewind tool (both left and right hand threads are used, I got both in using a single tool though), you can get the pads out and in without moving the piston though.0 -
I hope you didt use normal grease0
