Squeal sound from rear of car when reversing ???

Hi

There seems to be a very loud squealing sound coming from the rear of the car when reversing? Sounds like its coming from the wheel area. At first Assumed it was when I had my foot on the brake but today it started without me touching the brakes. I had the front pads replaced about a month or so ago but I'm certain the noise is coming from the rear. This is getting abit embarrassing now as the noise is very loud. Any ideas what's up

Thanks

Have you run over a pig?

Lol no, could it be a binding handbrake shoe?

Hmmmmmmm didn't think of that. Sticking rear caliper. As for the hand brake I did think that.

And as for the pig! The wife assures me she hasn't hit anything let alone a pig! Laughing FFRR 4.2 Supercharged

I had a binding rear caliper, check your pads tomorrow! Apparently it's a common problem on 2005 cars. If it's on the n/s the pads will disappear without trace or warning, since the brake pad wear sensor is on the other side! 2006 Supercharged

Could be the brake backplate touching the disc. mine used to rub slighty when driving but make a load noise like scratching a blackboard when reversing. Td6 SE

Well it's deffinatley coming from the rear drivers side wheel. Some real heat coming from that wheel once I've stopped driving. And a strong smell of burning. Car vibrates like mad now when driving. I'm gonna take the wheel off next week and have alook see what I can see. If it is a stuck caliper does it mean the calipers knackered or do I just 'unstick' to put right?
