Default squeaking noise

Hey need help on trying to figure out this squeaking noise coming from. I here from the passengers side. I thought it was a bad bearing so I took it to a shop, but the mechanic said bearing are still good. He thinks it could be my transmission. I hear the noise around 20-40 mph but h
Goes away after I press on the gas. I also notice a click when I back up.

Sounds like it very well could be rear wheel bearing. If it's on a lift up in the air there isn't load on the bearing so won't make noise. Least that was my experience. Had to drive by someone in neutral and have them listen!

Problem: Clicking noise from rear when moving in first gear or reverse. Sounds like two metal marbles.
Solution: Honda use to torque the axle nuts to 180 lbs. The correct torque is now 230 lbs. Torque your axle nuts.

I'm having the same squealing noise. Mine also stops while I accelerate. My mechanic told me it was the sliders on my brake calipers but I greased the shit out of them yesterday and they immediately started squealing again. Let me know what torquing your axle nuts does...
