Squealing in reverse

Recently I'm hearing a faint squealing whenever I back up, especially first
thing in the morning when I back out of my driveway. It sounds like a
squeaky brake, but I'm not touching the brake peddle, so ???

if your a 5 speed do you mean that sound you hear when you reverse? I didnt hear that at all when I first had the max, but later after the clutch was in I hear it and didnt know till a friend told me...
