Hi,
It turns out that DVD players are not as common as they once were so I had to come up with a solution....

Maytag Neptune bearing and seal kit - More Information
If you own a Maytag Neptune washer and it sounds like a jet plane taking off when it is ramping up to high speed spin then your bearings probably need checked and/or replaced.
What happens as the tub seal wears it will eventually allow water to get past and from there it will enter to where the bearings are which will cause the bearings to rust and they will start to get loud.
If your machine is 10 - 15 years old it may be a wise investment to take machine apart, clean it out and replace the bearings and seal so you can proactively keep machine running smoothly. If you wait until the bearings are screaming you run the risk of damaging other components such as the spinner support shaft.
In addition, the bearings are steel and they are in an aluminum hub so when the water enters you will get corrosion due to the dissimilar metals. This corrosion can make the Neptune bearing replacement more difficult so it is best to catch it early.
Contact me if you have any questions about your particular Neptune model because there may be a couple more parts you will want to replace proactively to prevent future downtime.
