when im reversing my ZL Fairlane, i get this squealing sound from the back of the car somewhere...
i only hear it in reverse, and when the car is moving. checked tranny fluid, and its got plenty in it - and its pretty clean too i only noticed it after i took it for a quick spin around the block to make sure the new battery was full. yeah, only happens in reverse.. Any Ideas as to why? all help appreciated

it sounds the same when im rolling or giving it some gas and braking a lil - right till it stops moving and the sound stops...
i only noticed it the first time coz i let it roll backwards in neutral down the driveway - ie i wasnt giving it gas to hear the exhaust rumble....

i meant, is the sound there if you're not on the brakes, and does the sound change when you're on the brakes?

Does the ZL have seperate handbrake pads like the E series, if so remove the discs/rotors and blow out the excess brake dust in the brake assembly and refit.
