When I'm reversing from a drive way, I hear this very loud squeak kind of like the squeaks you get from brake pads. It only happens when I'm reversing down a driveway. Whether I'm in reverse or not, if the car is rolling (even with out me touching the brake or pushing in the clutch) I get this noise. Ideas? Experience?

I'm bringing it in tomorrow, but wanted to get some feedback here first.

I find if it pull up my e-brake again and then put it back down it goes away.

I think I have the same problem. I've only ever noticed it when reversing the car off my driveway first thing in the morning.

Did you find out what was causing it?

+1 This is a known problem with the E60's TPMS sensors and not a major issue other than being annoying and emberassing. I took mine in multiple times and everything checks out ok. The e-brake suggestion is right...works for me all the time....squeal was present even after all 4 brakes were changed and still brand new!!
