Noise during a washing machine cycle or noises while spinning can be caused by worn bearings, drum paddle damage, too much drum movement, loose weights and gaps between the door seal and the drum. Common causes of washing machine noises can also be due to smaller issues such as items stuck in the washing machine drum, washing with an unbalanced load or if the appliance isn't level.
