strange sound when taking off

hello there, i have an MCS 04, and i have noticed a light sounds, almost like a squick, when im stopped and accelerate. at the beggining i thought it was an impatient driver behind me beeping one short time, but then i saw that nobody was around. after a while i realized that it does it quite often - i was thinking perhaps the breaks, at best, hopefully it isnt something more serious...

is it only occurring when you are starting out in 1st and letting out the clutch? if so, it is a common issues (just an annoyance though).

it happens when i move from dead stop, on first, and on reverse...i lately have notices the same squicking noise, while driving at high speed usually...that's why I'm thinking perhaps something is up with the brakes..
