from nsf wheel, only at lower speeds (i think - due to wind / road noise)

noise isnt their underbreaking, but is whether in gear or not

brake pads and discs are ok

nopise is like a high speed / pitched metal on metal? bearing?

will jacvk the car up tmrow and rock the wheel about and see of theres play

rough estimate btw on getting a front bearing done?

Squealing is often the pad sticking slightly in the carrier, or the backplate getting bent and touching the disc. It can even just be grit in the caliper. I'd take the pads out, make sure the caliper is moving freely, clean the area where the pad sits in the caliper and use a smear of copper compound where the pad slides. Nine times out of ten that sorts it.
