INDESIT WASHING MACHINE WE16S MAKING GRATING NOISE CAN ANY ONE HELP?

Hi

I have an indesit we16s washing machine. I have had it for about 3 years now and it has done us alright. I have been noticeing recently that when the machine goes into spin mode its now making a wierd low grating noise like metal grating/scraping against metal. I have only noticed this noise when it is in spin mode and at no other time in the cycle (as yet :o( )

Does anybody know what this could be and if so how easy is it to fix?

Any help will be much apprechiated!! :o)

sounds like the main drum bearings have gone to me,a costly job,cheaper to invest in a new machine

Thanks for the reply. I don't think it is money in the drum as washing machine was making low grating noise last few washes but on the last wash I did its got much much worse (don't dare put it on again) it has now started da donking (loudly) and sounding like a jet engine. It makes this grating noise (seems to be coming from back of drum?) even when I spin it by hand now but obviously not as loud.

Anyway anyone, any ideas?? Please Help!!! :o)
