'02 Mazda MPV... an audible squeak can be heard from the rear, can't really tell what side, whenever the brake is released, not pressed. I believe the control arms are already replaced. It's not the kind of squeal you can hear when your pads are low... it's more like a mechanical squeak - almost like a job for wd40.

Possibly broken and loose anti-rattle clips on the rear pads dangling on the disc ever so lightly. Take the tire off and spin it around in both directions, you should be able to locate it pretty easily if it's a consistent noise.

Nvm, just looked up that vehicle, it is drum brakes in rear.
