The following is for the 0AYW unit, Here are your parts Replacement parts for MAYTAG MDE5000AYW Dryer - Ele \| AppliancePartsPros.com And a manual http://www.servicematters.com/maytag_library/docs/16023110.pdf Grinding is often front glides, Item 8 in Section 7. Of course check all other moving parts. I would also check the belt, rollers etc, might as well give it an overhaul while you have it opened up. Give the interior including the blower wheel a good cleaning. Also clean and check your vent system.
