Help!!! Noise when backing....

Hey guys, long time no post.

I have 2013 gs350 awd. Approaching almost 100,000km.

A few days ago my car started making sqeaking break noise only when I put my car in reverse. Even without stepping brakes.

Any of you ever experience this?

Please help me out!

Thanks guys!

I’ve got the same model year same mileage but no I have not experienced that . BUT When I had my first car the rear brakes wore out majorly and the caliper rusted closed 😅 Made a very unpleasant grinding noise until I got it fixed

Yeah it might be rear brake pads or rotor or caliper. I guess I will have to go check. But the noise still exist when not even using brakes....

LOL!

But seriously, it's probably just the wear indicator, the squeal is the indicator that your brake pads are low and need replacement soon. It's normal and occurs on many cars, SUVs and trucks.
