it makes a loud high pitched noise when i put the car in reverse. would that be because my rear brake pads are almost wearing out, or is it something else?
It can be the front or rear brake pads. The rear brake pads last about 2/3 of the life of the front because they start out thinner because of the parking brake.
if you do the rear brakes yourself you'll need a special tool or very wide flat chisel to turn the caliper piston back into the caliper. The front caliper pistons just push back in with a big pair of channel locks.
to be honest, its tough to tell from inside of the car if the noise if its front or rear brakes, but it is definitely the wear sensors on the brakes telling you its time to replace the pads. Unfortunately you have to take the pads off to see which ones are worn as the wear sensors are on the inside pads.
you might make it easier by having someone walk next to the car as you back up to isolate the nosie between front and rear but its always good to check both front and rear anyway.
