It doesn't make any abnormal noise when filling with water or drying. The noise seems to be coming from the bottom of the unit. My guess is something motor-related, though I'd love it if it wasn't.

If you see a groove but no o-ring, trying putting a 5/8" ID o-ring on there and see if that gets rid of the noise. I installed that on a dishwasher over the weekend and not only is it quiet again but it also seems to be doing a better job of cleaning the dishes.
