Bob K for Model Number MVWB850YW0 I have a couple of items. During the wash cycle you can hear the unit go klunk, klunk each time the agitator rotates back and forth. The other item is the loud grinding sound during the spin cycle. It is continually getting worse. Can I just replace the bearings and seal or do I need to replace the tub as well?
Answer Bob, You shouldn't need to replace the tub at all. But you do want to remove the washplate and check for an article stuck underneath it, then remove the tub and check the basket hub W10820039 for worn and damaged "teeth" This could be the " klunk" noise in the wash/agitate as well as a grinding noise in the spin cycle. If you do need or want to replace the tub bearings and seal you'll need the W10435302 seal kit and the W10447783 Installation tool. Read More...
