Ok stop spraying your wheel bearing, your probley washing the grease out off it, you noise is more likely from your brakes. Have you had them checked out recently. Could be low or full of dust.

as above, brakes mate, the sqeaking is caused by a tiny bit of metal on brake pad, its a wear indicator.

Generally as a rule bearings don't squeek, they'll drone or rumble due to the nature of there construction and amount of load placed on them. Is it a constant squeek. Does cornering change it. Did you check the inner pads too?

speed related squeeking. when squeeking if you put the brakes on does it stop?

Checked the power steering pump belt? perhaps put some belt gripper spray stuff on it. Any abnormal steering?
