The dishwasher had been sitting for a year while we moved houses…Once install anytime you open or close the door it makes a terrible noise. It may be the hinges or the spring, its very hard to tell. WD40’d the hinges but it didnt silence it a bit which tends me to beleive its the spring. For the money I spent on this thing it should quiet as a mouse. Any ideas would be appreciated…and yes its level, Thanks
I would recommend to replace the door balance links, the door balance wheels and the door balance mounts on both sides of the dishwasher door.
- The part number for the set of two links is AP3775412
Good luck.

I have had a Kitchen Aid dishwasher for about 7 years and am replacing my 3rd set of links this week. Always order extras! They have broken on both sides, and it seems to be a design issue. At least they could try to make the repair kit a bit more robust.
