its probably the drum bearings. most likely the inner bearing. just changed mine for same problem on a wma1512s but now it wont take on water. dont think problem is related as bearings have nothing to do with the water side. put your hand in the drum and lift up. if you can feel the drum lift its your bearings. hope this helps
