There could be a correlation. Nose gear shimmy on a Cessna is often related to small bits of play between the moving parts on the nose gear. The bounces and partial groundloop may have caused this play to increase. It may also have caused uneven wear on the nosewheel tyre, which can also lead to shimmy.
