dragging sound?

last night when I went to back up I noticed a sort of dragging sound in my
06 accord.. I got out and checked the wheel wells to see if something was
caught in it, I didn't notice anything, but I pulled forward it didn't make
that sound. so I stopped and backed up again, and sure enough, it still made
the sound. now this is an I4 5M sedan and the sound I'm saying is not the
usualy sound a manual tranny makes when you back up (that sort of low
pitched wurr) but more of a dragging 9is the best way I can describe it) any
clue as to what this might be?

Did you look under the car?

Maybe you just found out where your neighbor's cat went.

Tell us the mileage and we'll have better answers, or wait until

How long sisnce the car was driven last? Sounds like a bit of rust on the
rears.

 

Sorry, incomplete last post. I meant a "bit of rust on the rear BRAKES".

 

sorry, should of given mroe information. the car has about 5500 miles on it
and is driven daily (it was driven that day and sat in the driveway for a
few hours (wasn't raining out or anything) so I'm not sure it's rust. I did
look under the car and didn't see anythign either.
after listening more indepthly, it really sounds like it's comming from the
front drivers side tire, I've checked it a few times (both the tire and the
wheel well) t see if the tire was low or somethign was in there, but nothing
that I can find.

I had this happen on my 98 civic once. It ended up being a pebble caught
between the back of the brake rotor and the flimsy metal back plate. Used a
long screwdriver to pop the pebble out, and no more noise.
