HELP! All was well but it wasn't cleaning as well recently. I took out the filter that sits in the tub (after removing lower spray arm, hub nut, fine filter assembly, filter cover and venturi). I cleaned the filter (which was filled with gross goop), then used a shop vac to suck up the excess water and any debris. I then put everything back.

When the cycle started next, there was a rattling noise that sounded like something loose and hard rattling around. I went back and looked below the filter again and shop vac'ed again (nothing new that I saw).

Next time, noise was rattling around again, then got stuck on the noise in this video. Then it would rattle some more, then get stuck on this noise. Now this noise is constant when the motor is running the "loose rattling" sound is no more.

If all I saw was this video, I would think the bearings are going bad and pump needs to be replaced. But the rattling around noises before this video makes me think it could be a piece of debris that was loose and is now lodged.

Thoughts? Anything I can do without pulling washer out?
