check your brakes mate it sounds like a brake wear indicator letting you know that your pads are low.

My rear disc brake shields (the tin shields protecting th edisc on the inside) has cracked around a bolt hole, and it would make the brakes squeak (quite loudly, I must say) when slowing in revers, but only just at the end, like from about 3kph to zero.

I fitted a large panel washer under the bolt head, and it stopped the vibration.
