Maytag DG312, same problem. Repair estimate?
Similar to the complaints in this thread, our Maytag DG312 has this problem.
I read somewhere else (heh, lost URL...) that special riveting tools were needed to repair a grinding sound while drying, leaving marks on clothes...
We've had this thing for 20 years. Did its job until this.
Should we "upgrade" and fork over for a new unit rather than face a repair estimate and further delay?
When I first got this problem I took the dryer a part, thoroughly cleaned it. It drys faster now, but still G-R-I-N-D-S and today my wife pointed to marks on clothes attributable to the dryer.
What's it going to cost? Buying special riveting tools sounds expensive for a one time job.
Looking forward to advice.
