Amana NGD4655EW 6.5 cu ft Gas Dryer 18,000 BTU Wrinkle Prevent Noisy Operation Error Fix: Squealing, Thumping, or Scraping Noise

The dryer produces unusual noises during operation. Squealing or squeaking usually indicates worn drum rollers (support wheels at the rear of the drum) or a worn idler pulley bearing. Thumping may be flat spots on the drum support rollers, a loose or damaged blower wheel, or heavy items in the load. Scraping sounds indicate worn drum glides (small felt or plastic pads at the front of the drum opening) or a foreign object caught between the drum and the housing. Replace rollers and glides as a set for even wear.
