My washer last night just gave up the ghost. It began making a loud noise after it broke apparently during spin or just after because the clothes were relatively damp not dripping wet. Now, it won't agitate or spin at all it just has the clanging. I changed the clutch assembly out a few months ago for spin cycle problems. Is this the end game noise for the washer??? :(

It could be the transmission, but the first thing to check is the coupling. Over 95% of the time that is the problem, particularly if it will drain.

It drains but the same sound occurs during the process, loud noise as the pump's being turned, it's not pretty.

Okay, that means the motor is turning so it would seem the coupling is the likely culprit.
