Washer-dryer is extremely noisy during spin; banging or rumbling sounds from drum area.

Safety: Unplug the appliance. Avoid running the machine at high spin if severe noise is present, as further damage may occur.

• Check for foreign objects: Shine a torch through the drum holes and rotate the drum slowly to look for bra wires or coins scraping the outer tub. Remove via heater opening or sump hose if found.
• Test bearing play: With the door open, lift the inner drum up and down. Excessive movement or a grinding feel indicates worn bearings.
• Inspect pulley and dampers: Remove the rear panel and check the drum pulley bolt is tight. Inspect suspension dampers for oil leakage or broken mounts; replace if worn.
• Plan bearing replacement: Bearing replacement on New World washer-dryers is a major job requiring tub removal and press tools. Consider professional service if bearings are noisy.
