Dryer drum was making one heck of a racket while running Michael R. • Closter , NJ • January 08, 2015
The cylinder roller that supports the dryer drum was worn and needed to be replaced. I ordered the idler pulley shaft and associated parts as well since I wasn't sure if these were worn too.
Watching the video on the web site gave me a good idea what was involved and where to look. It wasn't my exact model and make but provided sufficient information on what to look for. The parts were exact fits which was a great relief abd the dryer is running like new again!

- Helps prevent drum wobble and uneven wear that can lead to rubbing or thumping noises
- Common symptoms: loud squealing or grinding, thumping during rotation, visible drum wobble
What's included: One roller support Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
- Access typically requires removing the dryer front or rear panel; follow the model's service manual
- Inspect the roller, axle, and adjacent support components; replace any worn parts to prevent repeat failure
- Use proper tools and secure fasteners to factory torque

Dryer belt and belt pathway, felt-drum-seal and felt-bearing surfaces needed a thorough cleaning. Brian L. • Kailua-Kona , HI • March 15, 2014
The new roller support wheels helped quite the dryer. The other contributing factor was the outer door frame 'felt bearing' and the rear drum ‘felt-seal’ had a lot of dust, dirt. lint and other contaminants in the fibers. It was vacuumed clean and now the drum turns much easier.
In addition, I cleaned the belt and belt-pathway and lubricated the Rollers. Some say not to lube the wheels, but it helped a lot. It doesn't squeal any more.
Thank you for the parts!
Brian.

Genuine Bosch part
By: Bosch
Part Number: 00481698
This genuine OEM replacement part is a pulley assembly for dryers. Sometimes called an idler arm, the pulley assembly keeps the dryer drive belt under tension as the belt wraps around the dryer drum. If the dryer is no longer spinning properly and is making a lot of noise, the pulley assembly may need to be replaced. Luckily this repair is a relatively simple process.To remove the old dryer pulley assembly, start by making sure the dryer is unplugged. Remove the lint screen from the top of the dryer. Remove the two Phillips screws by the lint screen opening. Depress the clips that hold the top cover down. Lift the top cover and keep it in an upright position. Disconnect the wire harness to the switch that separates the connector. Remove the screws on the front panel. Lift the panel forward and set it to the side. Next, lift the drum and locate the pulley assembly under the drum. Lift the belt off the motor pulley to remove the assembly. Set the new pulley assembly in the same position as the old one and make sure everything is aligned. Rotate the drum to make sure it rotates smoothly. reinstall the panels.This replacement part is sold individually and is compatible with Bosch, Gaggenau, and Thermador dryers.
