Swoooshing noise only when reversing??

Postby gilliam433 » Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:43 pm

Hey guys - Forgive me if this topic has been covered before. I've got an 06 Pathfinder and last week every time I began reversing the car began making this creaking/swooshing noise. The noise speeds up when the car speeds up, and if I back up in neutral (I have a steep driveway), the noise does not occur. So its only when Im in reverse gear and going backwards.

Im going to try and take a video tonight and record the noise and try to post it somewhere for you guys to hear. But in the meantime, any ideas as to what this could be?

I've heard a "low brake pad" noise/squeal and it doesn't sound anything like that really.

Thanks in advance for your help!
