Strange squeaky noise coming from rear end PLEASE HELP
 
For a while now I've been dealing with a strange squeaky noise coming from the rear end. At first it sounded like a wheelbearing So I changed both..... Nothing changed. Then I tried tightening the e brake cable.. Still nothing, anyone got any ideas?

I've attached a video... Please someone help. I'm lost and very annoyed

Temporarily swap rear wheels and see if the noise moves.

Tried that... Still nothing unfortunately

Sounds like the dust shields on the front? rear? brakes could be bent. That causes the rotor to scrape on them and cause that metallic noise. Pull the wheels and get it up on jack stands before you slide under there and check both sides.

I had that same sound once... rear dust shield was bent. I think DK hit the nail on the head.

I'm with the other two on that one! Sounds like either a bent dust shield, or...one of the brake pad hardware is bent/installed incorrectly and contacting the rotor or wheel as it turns. Jack it up like the others said and turn it by hand. Won't be hard to locate a noise like that! Good luck and let us know how it turns out!

OP, did you find out what the cause of the noise was?

I have had this exact same noise from driver side rear for a while and still hasn't been able to figure out the root cause.
Worst when I make right turns when the weight is shifted to driver side. No noise when turning left.
