Just over 1 year old GE washer GTW465ASNWW. During agitation cycles, when it activates the agitator for just a second, then it waits a moment, while the tub is freely coasting (like in gentle cycle) something makes a rubbing/whining noise as the tub freely spins. If you open the lid at that time, and manually move the tub slowly, you can replicate the noise, although it turns smoothly. It seems to be coming from somewhere inside back left. If the washer is not in the agitation cycle, however, (like after the wash is done) and you rotate the tub manually, it does not make the noise. This washer has no removable front panel, and I have no idea how to access the innards to narrow it down. It seems well leveled, and the tub is centered. I have a video of the noise if there is a place to post it. Please help.
I’m having the same problem. Just purchased this washing machine a few weeks ago.
Thoughts anyone?
