This is very common with this model. It is likely the rear bearing is failing. You can listen to it and if the sound comes from the rear, that is what it is.


Unfortunately, it is not a repairable item, you have to replace the back half that contains the bearing. Since it is an expensive repair I would advise running the machine until you can no longer stand the noise, then getting a new one.

Sorry not to have better news.

You probably also have bad tub bearings, makes the repair too expensive.
