my coaster model 4 speed is wasted on the inside. the bike shop had to order special grease suggested by shimano customer service. the grease only held up for about a month and the sickly symptom reemerged. the main symptom is the loud squeal that erupts on sudden braking maneuvers. is there a fix that my bike shop should try?

consequently, these hubs on ebay are getting expensive, so could anyone recommend another great coaster hub with more than three gears?
 
They do have 7 and 8 speed nexus hubs, type in shimano nexus on yahoo and go to sheldonbrown.com. Cool stuff with losa info. I think the 7 speed was $160.
