Is this a familiar sound, or should I ask a mechanic to have a listen?


  I had this happen as well, and it turned out to be the clutch
tension ring was a little loose and at certain frequencies would
vibrate.  It sounded like a nickel in a tin can on a running dryer.
You might check the lock rings on the cable for the clutch...
