Default weird noise

i was coming from work in manhattan, and i picked up my girlfriend in hoboken and went back to staten island and when i parked the car there was a weird,loud noise coming from the rear tires, can anyone tell me what that is?
also how do i fix the nav so when i start the car and turn on the nav it always says 50yd instead of 400 yd?

Default The weird noise is

the rear brakes self-adjusting themselves. Normal, and they do this occasionally.

Don't know about the nav system.

Default Salesmen should warn people about that noise.

I about had heart failure when I thought I had a circular saw loose in my trunk the first time it happened.

As for the Nav, mine always defaults to 200, I believe.
