It could be the bearings in one of the fan motor, fan blade itself off balance or it could be coming from the heat exchanger. You will need to locate the origin of the noise to determine what the solution maybe. If it from a fan replace the appropriate fan motor and/or blade, if it's from the heat exchanger carefully turn the drier slightly (maybe a 1/4 turn or less) nat
