Hello there and welcme to fixya
This is a fairly common problem with these dryers
please check each of the following you will probably have to remove the outer shell to get axcess to these parts listed below
Rollers
Many
dryers use rollers or wheels to support the clothes drum. When these
rollers are worn, they can be noisy. You should replace the whole set of
rollers at the same time.
Idler pulley
Dryers
have a tension or idler pulley that keeps tension on the main drive
belt. When it's worn, it can be noisy. When that happens, don't
lubricate it. Just replace it.
Glides
Many
dryers use nylon or plastic glides at the front of the clothes drum for
support. When these are worn, they can be noisy. When that happens,
replace them.
Rear drum bearing
Some
dryers support the clothes drum in the rear with a center spindle
instead of rollers. The spindle may be a ball-and-socket type support or
a shaft through a sleeve. When the components are worn, they may
squeak, squeal, or rub. You can't repair them. Just replace them when
they're worn.
Blower wheel
Your
dryer's blower wheel pulls air over the heat source, through the
clothes drum, and past the thermostats, then pushes it out the exhaust
duct. The blower wheel, which is usually plastic, may wear out over
time. But if it's noisy, it may simply be clogged with lint. Clean the
blower and test to see if the dryer is still noisy. If it is, you
probably need to replace it.
