I had the same problem with my 04 Quest minivan and it was due to shifting brake pads in the carrier when you shift from reverse to drive or sometimes drive to drive. Lubed up back of pads and tab slots with high temp brake lube worked for a period of time...Knowing what the noise was reassured me of no serious problems so when the noise returned some time later didn't do anything till brake change.
