AEG Lavamat 3 years old, banging violently when spinning. When stopped the drum now feel loose and can be moved back and forward, seems like it has dropped lower inside the machine
Sounds to me like maybe the wash load was not balanced. For example a down comforter will weigh a lot when wet and clump to one side throwing off the balance. It sounds like the machine is tearing itself apart. Leaving it too long when it's tearing itself apart will wreak it. Try running a light and balanced load of laundry to see if it will still work.
It could be the main shaft on the drum or misalignment. There is some flexibility, but not a lot. Check for worn belts, pulley wheels, and other attachments.

It's probably the bearings. The drum have probably get so loose from the bearing, so the belt have snapped off.

I have had the same problem. If you switch the machine to off and then to cotton/linen 95, then press at the same time prewash, soaking, qick wash and stain buttons for 10 seconds switch it off. When I switched it on it worked.

Is it a maytag? My maytag front load washing machine had 2 long bolts with plastic braces on them, to keep the drum still during shipping. Mine would bang and shake all over. I got the book out before I finally figured it out. I had to take the back cover off and remove the bolts and plastic braces over them. They look like they' 8 inches long or so. It works great now.
