Dashboard squeal could be the fan on the interior temperature sensor 
assembly that's located beneath the little vent in the middle of the 
dash.  Most reports of the driveshaft bearing failure I've seen here 
involved vibrations as the principal symptom.  A coupla squirts of oil on 
the bearing might help answer the question.
