Noise Maytag washer, top loader
 

First Maytag washer and dryer lasted forever, new appliances are not
reliable regardless who makes it.

Anyway this 3 years old Maytag washer developed a very loud continuous
rumbling noise whenever the motor is on in any part of the cycle. So noisy
we couldn't watch TV even with the speaker volume up. Otherwise it works
fine. Any ideas before I take it apart? TIA

Motor related brings up the possibilty of a bad belt, belt tensioner,
or pulley(s). Say a prayer that the transmission is OK.
Repairclinic.com for advice and parts, as always. Good luck.
