My samsung rs21dgrs is making very loud noise

Started to make loud possible motor noise that slows down and then stops when you open the door. Also, don't think the fridge is cool enough.

Sounds like your Samsung RS21 has devoloped a known fault.
Your frdige will be cold in the drawers but not cold above this? Also there is ice around the pipe behind the drawers. it is the ice hitting the fan that is the noise and eventually stops the fan which pushes the cold air around the frdige.Samsung have extended their warranty to 5 years to cover for this.
You need to call the Samsung customer care team 0845 7267864 and should be repaired free of charge. - mine was. When you call, you need the full model number and serial number. my serial number was on the outside left hand side of the fridge. The engineer comes out within a day or 2.

Me too. I just called Samsung and they are sending a repair man, free, even though mine was built in 2006. They were keen to stress this was a one-off and there would be no further support afterwards, but still. Well done Samsung!
BTW - From the UK the new number to call is 0330 7267864

We have a Samsung FR323TEDBSR french door refrigerator that is becoming very noisy
It sound like the fan motor is going bad. They will spin fine when spun by hand but will start to rattle or squeal when running. if it is the model I think you have the entire panel is replaced as a complete unit. This is not hard to replace. It looks like you have already had the panel out. It just has a couple wire to unclip. and clip the new one in.

You are probably correct that it is the evap motor. If you are seeing frost on the back wall then there is probably some ice built up around the motor and the fan blade is hitting it.
Try defrosting the freezer and look very closely all around the seal for the freezer drawer. It is common for moisture to freeze in the self closers in the drawer rails and not let the drawer close completely on one side or the other. If this happens the small gap will allow the freezer to frost excessively.
Sorrry to be slow in responding. I have been very busy this week and have not been on line very much.

Noise from Deodorizer
Sounds like the circ. fan may be hitting something or has a blade broken off. The refer gets cool air from the freezer section to cool it so the fan aids in the circulation along with vents/dampers, etc. to move air into the refer compartment. If that fan is broken off the motor shaft or something then the motor can run but no air will move. See if you can feel air moving out of the vents, it will be a little bit of "blowing" not a huge wind. A wet hand can help feel for wind. I believe the deodor light may indicate a change is needed (but check the owners manual for actual meaning). If there is no air flow open the freezer section and see if the air flow is noticed then... if a air channel if frozen and can't draw air from the proper area, opening the freezer door will give it outside air and you may feel flow then, that would tell you of a frozen air channel issue.
