Hi there,
I didn't think I would be needing to come back here after my tumble drier recently had problems and thanks to people here meant that yet again there was stil life in the old thing yet.
Onward!
I own a top loading AEG L7026TLE1 in a flat for rentals. It's a small machine but it does a decent job for what it needs to do. I was listening to the spin cycle on it when doing some work in the flat and noticed that there were some strange noises coming from it. You could hear the normal sound of the machine when it was spinning - that clea electric sound- but overlayed was this kind of sound that was like a kind of gravelly sounds. It sounded as though where it was spinning there was small stones around the rotation. In fact when I put my hand on top of the machine when it is spinning it feels as though there is friction happening in it.
I popped it open, which is in fact prettty easy, for a change, and it all looked pretty okay. Nothing immediately looking bad.
What could this be? Unfortunately I could not find a reference to a manual online only in russian and other non english languages.
I did wonder whether this might be the thing to replace:

I did two videos, which I put on my dropbox and which can be viewed:
1) shows the machine with the side off:

2) shows a spin cycle, you can hear the noise clearly.

Wondering if anyone can point me to the place I should be looking.
Cheers.
