Why is my tumble dryer squeaking?

[charliecat]

and Can I stop it?

might be the brushes are worn? speak to a man about the squeak cos I'm too girly and useless

Is there a mouse in it?

I was thinking mouse too....

Not sure there's a lot you can do without a Mr Fixit as it's all inaccessible. I was going to suggest a bit of oil on whatever the drum spins on.

Actually, this is probably pretty good at sorting out the mouse-in-the-tumbledrier problem.

mine did this
is the surface it is on flat???

oh...i thought they all started squeaking at some point...and that someone...but not me would know why and how to stop it!

Thats great Soupy

Sorr!

Does it squeak if you try to spin the drum whilst it's off?

Whilst the drier is off not the drum, that is!

Mine squeaked for a while before the belt gave out.

Sorry, probably not what you wanted to hear.

It squeaks whilst it is working...i will check in a bit to see if it squeaks when there nowt in it...

Ours squeaks and has done for ages

It is just singing cos it is happy that you are using it

quick hijack - soupy - one more link to the bat and im going to do terrible, scary things to you.

snigger

no sniggering

Oh, I've just noticed mine is squeaking now you've mentioned it. Mine is on a worktop in the laundry room so I presume that's flat.
