Whining noise while slowly rolling backwards - 197



  Clio III Sport (197)
Hi.
I'm getting a whining noise when my Clio 197 slowly rolls backwards. It also sometimes happens while I'm rolling forwards. The car does not have to be in gear for this to happen. I suspect it may be related to my brakes since they are also a little squeaky at the moment. But the whining is a lower pitch than brake-squeaking.

Any ideas?

I'm unable to get it to happen while the engine is off. But it's not a constantly recurring noise.
Unfortunately it only happens intermittently so it's not easy to test this.
I did notice it seems to happen more often while the car is on an incline (facing uphill). It most frequently occurs if I roll backwards slightly - just before pulling off.
