The reason your squeak is because you have cooked pads.
De-glaze your rotors and get new pads....then break them in PROPERLY so you don't get the cooked resins causing the squeak again.

Boomin' Car Audio has Ractive slotted/drilled rotors for $129/pair for your golf. I know you said you don't want drilled, but this is a good price.

I replaced my pads when I got my x-drilled/slotted rotors...........and they were great for a while............but now they squeak like a bitch. I DIDN'T cook the pads.........I was really easy on them. I have no idea how I'm gonna get rid of the squeaking, it's pissing me off!!!
