Hey all,

Any thoughts on the possible reason behind this sound my washer started making?

Hey mate,

Sorry to hear that. My machine is over three years old, so you may have a defective unit. I suggest you use the warranty on your machine to replace it. That said, I did call a repairman to my home to run a diagnostic test on my machine and he said it is caused by overloading the washer. Over time, the balancing joints and/or belt wear down and even break. 

As such, I took out a warranty with Puls since I am outside of the warranty period with Samsung and will probably end up replacing the unit as it costs over $800 USD to replace the balancing joints and/or belt with labor. Just the cost of doing business, I guess.

I hope this helps!
