I've been noticing when I back my car out of the garage that the car makes strange sounds. I'm really not sure what it is but I'm thinking it might be my rear brakes fadding? Anyone know what could be causing the sound??

Could you be more specific?

Does it happen when you apply the brake?
When you are in reverse?
Is the car moving when the sound occurs?
How loud?
Does it get louder the harder you press the brakes, go faster in reverse?
Where does it sound like it's coming from?
Does it happen all the time when you are reversing?

Yeah I do. It didn't make the sound when I was backing out this morning but it sounds like a car horn, not like the weak sounding honda horn :p It seems only to happen when the car is cold.
