Hi there,

You will have to inspect the front wheel bearing for play, there should be none, check brakes and drive line for any looseness, check for foreign body stuck in drive line or breaks, check drive shafts, check tyres for something embedded in the tread, start here.

since it stared only after the shock squeak could that be the problem ?

Hi there,

If the noise is when the car is in motion it will be in the drive line, something that is rotating , front bearing, brakes, drive shaft, i would be looking here.
