Deja, get yourself a level and some strips of cardboard. take the cardboard and stuff it under a leg of the machine until the leveler says it is level. You want to make sure your machine is level so it won't throw off your barrings.

A loud noise during the spin cycle of a washing machine, like the LG WM3470CW, can have a few different causes. Here are some possible reasons and solutions: 1. Unbalanced Load: Sometimes, the noise can be caused by an unbalanced load. Even if the washer is empty, redistributing the laundry to balance the load can help reduce the noise. 2. Worn Out Parts: If you hear a high-pitched squealing sound, it could be due to worn-out parts like tub bearings, drive belt, or drum bearings. Getting these parts replaced should fix the noise issue. 3. Foreign Objects: Sometimes, objects like coins, nails, or small clothing items can get stuck between the inner and outer basket of the washer, causing noise. Make sure to check for and remove any foreign objects to prevent damage and reduce the noise. 4. Defective Shock Absorbers: If you're hearing a loud banging noise, it could be due to defective shock absorbers. These help prevent excessive movement during the spin cycle, and if one is broken, it can cause the basket to move too much and create noise. Getting the shock absorbers replaced should solve the problem.
