Hi,
A common problem with many dryers is the wearing of the guide slides or wheels. Different dryers use different methods of hold the drum in place by giving it something to “ride” on. These guides can be either in the front or the back, but usually the back ones wear out first. This is because the drive belt is in the back and puts a bit of extra stress on the back of the dryer drum. The belt can also causes squeaks or “bumps”, thumping, etc… so it is important to either change everything or determine which part is causing the problem.
When these guides or the belt wears it can cause squeaks, thumps, bumps, slow rotation, etc…
I hope that this will help you to solve your problem!

Thanks for using Fixya!!

Precor treadmill making squeaking noise when running fast
Two likely candidates: Belt or tread. Lubricating the tread would be the easiest starting point; but if you're running at 7 or more you've probably already thought of that.
If the cover isn't too difficult to remove, you can expose the drive belt and the squeaking volume change would be an indicator that the drive belt is the problem.

Does squeaking coming from automoble water pump indicate water pump bearing is bad
If you take the belt off and there is no noticeable in/out, up/down, or side to side movement of pulley and there is no noise when rotating, a new belt may be all you need. Make sure you check ALL of the other belt driven components including idler pulleys and belt tensioner pulley. A worn tensioner can squeak also.

Flair Cleaner makes squeaking noises
There are two items that could squeak:
If it squeaks when pushing/pulling it on carpet, WHILE NOT RUNNING, then the wheels are squeaking when they rotate on the wheel shaft. If so, one drop of oil at the shaft would fix it.

If it squeaks WHILE RUNNING, mostly while pulling backwards on carpet, then the belt is slipping. You may wish to set the nozzle height setting for a higher pile carpet, or could replace the rubber belt.
