Default WTF is this noise

Can someone please help me with this. Whenever im driving down the street I hear this somewhat loud high pitched squealing sound that only goes away when i come to close to a stop. It doesnt change if I press the clutch in or not. WTF can this be?

sounds similar to brake squeal but it doesnt change if I put the brakes on or not. If im just accelerating it makes that sound

does it do this at low speeds like when your backing out of a parking space? it could be your ujoints going bad.

Have you touched any of your rotors, especially your rear ones?? I must warn you though, if a brake is dragging, then the rotor will be EXTREMELY hot..

You may have a sticky caliper that's just dragging a pad.. Since the caliper is stuck, it just continues, whether there's pressure or not..

My clutch made a really high pitch sound before it went. It didn't feel like it was slipping or anything it just made a high pitch noise wether or not i was in nuetral or driving. Also yeah a sticky caliper makes the same noise. Just two possible senarios.
