Black powder sounds like brushes are wearing down. If noise is severe, suspect bearings. With door open try wiggling the drum up and down. If it moves inside the tub, replace the bearings. Try new brushes first!
its the drum bearings there worn out try opening the door and lifting the top of the drum with your fingers if there is any life and the drum drops back when you let it go its them bearings,, then spin the drum by hand is should grumble or growl,,,if it dont do any of this, it could be the "spider" broken off, its an ally part that holds the drum bearings and the drum up,
If you've just installed it for the first time ensure that transporting locks been removed (big screws under usualy yellow or white plastic covers at the back side of the machine) Make sure that machine is standing flat on the floor with no swinging whe you try to move it, this can be achieved by adjusting four legs of the machine (one at each corner). If neither of those helps than you need to identify when the noise appears what machine is doing at that moment. If the noise appears when it's draining, pumping water out, than your machine's pump is wearing out, or if it's noisy when spining (final spin) than bearing of the drum is wearing out.
about the noise and juddering of the unit just adjust the legs at each bottom corner of the washing machine to make it stand flat on the floor. Do not touch the bearing for now! update me about your progress while I'll check my records for data about your washer.
that is the bearing and it is not feasible to fix it is about a 2 hr job for a technician so it wouldnt be something you want to tackle I guess I am saying out with the old and in with the new sorry for the giver of bad news
i had the same problem check the holes inside the drum for a bra wire stuck in one of them which was my problem we also thought the bearings had gone but they were not hope this helps
My machine is just over 3 years old and although there is no play in the rear drum bearing it is very noisey on spin.
It gets progessively loud the faster the spin speed.
