Bangs, thumps, grinding? If your washer is making a loud noise you can be sure it has something to do with a bearing. But which one? There are two common bearings inside washing machines: the rear drum bearing or a tub bearing.

I found this info below. Check it out for more help with your issue.

SOURCE: My Capacity Plus Admiral Washer will spin and agitate, but it makes a loud grinding noise.

Well, Sounds to me like the Bearings are going out, but it could make that noise a good while, before it goes completely out.. Replacement would possably be more cost effective, Kinda hard to beleive !!!!!!

SOURCE: The washing machine started making a grinding

sounds like a bearing... although it could be the water pump... water pump is an easy fix... bearing is not an easy fix... take the belt off the bottom of the pump (under the machine) and see if it spins freely by turning it w/ your hand... or if it seems really stiff... if it looks good then it's def. your bearing...

Mine just started the same thing. the pulley on the water pump has a press-fit metal collar inside and and the collar is coming loose and rubbing on the metal plate that holds the pump. Sooner or later it will cut through and the pump will come loose, I'll bet that's what happened to yours. New pump for my model is $100, I'm looking for a cheaper price before buying one.

How do i repair a lg washer that makes a grinding noise when slowing down from spin cycle

It sounds as if the tub bearing on your machine is faulty. To replace this bearing one needs to basically strip down the entire machine.
Not a job for a novice.

When my washer is on the spin cycle it is making a very loud humming/grinding sound. This just started and the washer is 5 years old. What could the problem be?

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. More then likely, it is your spin bearing or the drive motor. This is usually the case if the noises occur in spin cycle. The most likely cause is your bearings.

Loud noises during spin cycles

Hello, If the noise is a squealing or grinding sound, you are likely looking at a bad seal and bearing.
If the noise is a knocking sound, it's more likely a suspension or out of balance condition.
Thanks

Whirlpool Duet Washer Making Loud Grinding Noise

not nesseccarrily your pump, possible you have a rear bearing going bad, which will sound as if a helicopter is coming through your laundry room. ( noisy pump can be the issue , honestly a better and cheapre problem to have) in order to determine if its apump problem you can remove the lower access panel and unplug the pump then start the spinn cycle, if it still loud the pumpms not hte issue.
