I have a Maytag Maxima Md6000xde Dryer SN M23302039. This unit is just over 1 year old and has gotten very noisy.

At first it would start out quite then started getting louder after it ran a little while, then the last few days it has gotten to the point where it starts out noisy. The noise is loud vibration almost like a bearing but with out the squeal..

I took the dryer apart and cleaned every thing checked the drum support bearings, the felt seals and the motor, I even added a few drops of oil on the bearing shafts. When I but the dryer back together it stills has a loud sound to it the noise level hasn't decreased. Any Ideas, I suspect the Drum support rollers. The belt looks good with no signs of wear.

Thanks

Your model number is invalid or incomplete check inside the door or on the back of the unit. Only being a year old i doubt it's the roller shafts that's very rare.
Check the blower wheel for debris and the dropdown from the lint trap of debris.
Make sure your unit is completely level and on a solid floor.
Check the drum for warping or parts grinding or separation of the drum.
Check the belt tensioner and spring.
Check the motor shaft for any wobble.
Check the front panel where the drum rests if it sits on the front checking the plastic guides if it sits on.
Not knowing your correct model those are the things i'd check just to give you an idea.
