I have a LG INTELLOWASH m/c WM 1080 FHD and when it is spinning, it continually grinds, it sounds like the bearings are going, is this the problem?

It is 12 years old.

Its central shaft bearing must be inspected and probably replaced.

Lg wm makes loud noise when changing speeds, grinding sound

It sounds as if there is a problem with the tub bearing of the machine, replacing this is a job left to professionals.

Lg intellowash 7.5 wd1025fb. loud dry bearing like noise on spin cycle

could be a coin or something stuck around the drum area. check all areas around where it spins. get a magnet if you don't see anything visible and run it along all the area.

Sounds like a bearing is going out howls when spinning

You're probably correct...Get quotes to replace seal, bearings and probably the pulley shaft as well, because the shaft may be grooved and the seals may not last......Good luck...Nomess

VERY LOUD GRINDING NOISE LG WM-2277HW Front Load Washer

Get a new washer. Perhaps another brand.

The fix for me was to get a new washer. Had same issue with loud spin cycle. Tried researching while wife was continuing use of washer. Then the LE message appeared.

Took back apart and found that water had leaked and caused a boat load of damage. Bearings shot, seal leaks, drum leaks, Stator damaged. Same issue as 'jammy64' stated.

Cost to repair wasn't worth it. Going to get an
Electrolux model.

Drum won't spin freely

Are you sure that there is nothing sticking through the holes in the drum like a nail etc or a screw from trouser pockets, it could be that the heating element has come loose and is scraping against the drum or that the bearings have gone.
