Hi.
Could be dry drum bearing or jockey pulley dearing. take the rear cveroff the back of the dryer, and you will see the rear drumshaft and bearing.
Squirt some wd40 on the bearing, hopefully.this will cure the squeak.

SAMSUNG steam moisture sensor front load dryer has noises coming from it. Need help to pinpoint possible problems and how to fix.

You may have a roller out of alignment or off track with the drum now if you took the front panel off. Check to make sure the rollers are on track and the front slides may need t o be replaced if your dryer is a 2 roller model.

The squeak is actually the rear bearing WE3X75.

We've got a Maytag MDE6000AYQ dryer that we love. It started squeaking two loads ago. It would squeak off and on during the cycle. This next load seemed to squeak worse, so I'm worried to use it any...

The squeak is most likely from the drum support rollers or the drum bearing. If it's the rollers, they're fairly easy to replace and often a drop of lubricant will solve the problem. This is just one supplier of such parts:

Smell

I think that you probably want to replace that gasket/book. with the front loaders, its almost best to leave the door cracked if you replace it. MCM electronics has the parts. their number is 800.824.9491. they ship UPS so its a little more expensive but if the part is in stock, you get it pretty quickly

Dryer is squeaky. The heavier the load the louder the squeak

Might be a worn plastic bearing on the ceter hub. I have repair pictures HERE

The dryer squeaks loudly

The dryer has been over loaded too often. Try to determine if squeak is from the front or back. The felt pad dirty. If it is from the bottom, then the tension roller is binding and needs lubrication.

Ge gas dryer that sweaks as drum rotates. the heavier the load the louder the noise

the drum sits on a couple of roller bearings. thats where the squeak is coming from. its a couple of hour job to change them. as far as dryer repairs go this is big job. I recommend finding a new machine although it will still work for quite a while.

Condenser dryer

doubt if squeak is related to not drying. if you are getting heat (you say heating element is ok) take out condensor and hose it down till thoroughly free of lint. check appliance has adequate ventilation as well
