LOUD RATTLING NOISES ON SPIN CYCLE (SOUNDS LIKE MONEY OR MARBLES IN MACHINE)

My Kemnore Oasis Canyon Capacity washer (purchased in 2007) works great except now on the spin cycle, it rattles like there is money or a bunch of marbles in the machine, which there isn't. Since the machine does not have the agitator in the middle, I am assuming that whatever is rattling is something that fell beside the washer drum, not in it. What can I do.

You'll need to investigate further. It may even mean bringing in a professional to be sure the vibration damper rods are ok - to prevent future and costlier problems.

I have a kenmore elite total care flex king size capacity plus quiet pak2 oasis that makes loud noises like a airplane when its in the spin cycle Model #110.28032701 which parts should be change?

If the washer is roaring during spin, the bearings are bad and you will need to replace the outer tub assembly.
Here is the part to order.

The part comes with a 365 day, any part, any reason return.

Excessive noise during the spin cycle. we have owned the washer for 16 months. problem started 1 wk. the machine is level.

It's noisy Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.

Water leaking and loud noise and rattling on final spin cycle

Turn the drum by hand and if you hear any noises it is the rear bearing. If there is no noise then remove the front bottom panel and take out the coin trap on the pump and check those hoses.

Very loud spin cycle

your bearings i the tub have gone bad. It happens usually if you use powder soap. It doesnt dissolve all the way and gets into the bearings and ruins them. Sorry but this is a pretty expensive fix. When you get it fixed used liquid soap and it shouldnt happen again.

Kenmore oasis washer

top loaders use the same motor for wash pump and spin to spin the clothes the motor direction is reversed and a solenoid releases the drum brake allowing the drum to rotate this is governed by a set of clutch shoes in the pulley if these are worn then the machine wont spin at full speed but ol on the display indicates overload so check the solenoid is releasing the drum usually heard as a loud clunk on spin start

Spin cycle noise problems

It is likely that you have an unbalanced load. Try spinning the machine with only water in it. If there are no noises now, you will need to re-distribute the load. We clothes are heavy!!
