Indesit IDV65UK Tumble Dryer Squeaking Repair

Guide to repairing an Indesit IDV65UK tumble dryer which started squeaking (also applies to various other tumble dryers such as IDV75UK, IC85, HotPoint).

My tumble dryer (Indesit IDV65UK - UK variant of IDV65) started squeaking loudly when it was spinning the other day so I wanted to find out what was wrong before the issue got even worse or packed in completely. The tumble dryer is only just over a year old, but gets heavy use due to the drying demands of having young children.

I unplugged and took the tumble dryer out from its usual location in order to look round the back. I removed a plastic cover to find a load of black powder residue:-



Apparently squeaky tumble dryers are quite common in certain brands/models and are often a sign of a worn bearing at the back of the machine.

As you can see in the above picture, the metal rod that supports the drum seems to have worn its way through the tear-drop shape bearing - the end of the metal rod should ideally be central in the tear-drop rather than hanging low.

I removed the bearing and other components by first using pliers to bend the soft metal 'S' (or 'Z') shaped pin from the locking nut. Once removed, the locking nut could slide off.





The tear-drop bearing could then be removed after lifting the dryer rod up - this was a little fiddly due to possible wear to the metal on the actual machine, but I managed to do this by looping some metal cable round the rod to provide some upwards leverage - a second pair of hands might be useful here.


You can see from the picture above that the bearing has had some pretty hefty wear!

All that was needed to fix my drier was a cheap replacement rear tear drop bearing - I managed to source one of these on Amazon for about £5. The particular bearing I was after appears to be compatible with dryers from other brands which suggests this is a standard component.  You can also get these on some other dryer spare/repair website, but they seemed to cost a little more.

TIP: (Added 16th July 2015) - I would suggest ordering some WD-40 at this point too (if you do not have any!) as a quick spray on the new bearing once fitted should help reduce future wear and tear.
Updated Tip - 13/1/2018 - Copper Grease/slip/Ease is a better product to use (Thanks for the feedback in the comments)

A few days after ordering, my replacement part arrived. Below is a comparison of the new and worn parts:-

I fitted the replacement part (reversing the steps to remove the worn part) and after installing, the squeak was gone!

      Love spell doctor has brought my husband back to me after 6 months of separation. My husband left me and wanted a divorce because of a young girl who is young enough to be her daughter. Your love spell has reunited my family once again after mourning and tears that I am now a single mom, but my teas has turn to Joy with your amazing return lover spell.

    Hi Simon, that is a great help, I think it would apply to my IDC 75 too. I wonder if you could advise further? I have a bra wire stuck in the tumble drier, it went through the holes at the back of the drum and I can’t get it out. Could you advise on a way to extract it please?
    Thanks Susan

    Hi Simon, after hours of trying to find the solution, I finally managed to get it. All I had to do was take the white plastic covering that you picture shows that covers the drum that looks like a fan, then unscrew the sticky out section where the heater is, and the bra wire was right there. Saved me a packet, I couldn't have done it without your instructions and pictures for removing the bearing. I learned a lot from you today so thanks very much again. Susan, aka as diysue :)

    Many thanks for your comments DIYSue and for reporting your successful fix. I'm glad you have found the above information useful and it's good to hear that the instructions seem to apply to the IDC75 model. Learning about the internals of these devices makes it a little less worrying when things go wrong with them.

    Brilliant advice the only problem I am having is getting the washer bit and s clip back on

  9. SiUK14 April 2015 at 10:46

    Hi Fran, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I had a similar issue in putting the washer back on as I think the spindle that goes through the centre of the drum had worn through some of the dryer's metal casing which the washer was designed to protect when the dryer spins. I managed to put the washer on by lifting the spindle upwards a little - since it needed a little force and could not grip it, I looped some metal wire (string should work) under the spindle and pulled it up with one hand whilst then fitting the washer with the other hand. - Hope that makes sense.

    Thank you from me Simon. I can confirm your fix works perfectly on the IDV75 UK model also.

    The link to Amazon was also good to have: ordered on Saturday, bearing arrived Sunday, machine working by teatime :)

    By the way, I gave the bearing a very small squirt of WD40 once it was on the shaft, as it looked like the original grease had all dried out. Time will tell if that was a good idea.

    David - Thanks for letting me know this guide also applies to the IDV75UK model too.

    I also used WD40 when I carried out my repair too hoping it would reduce future wear. So far I have not had to replace the bearing again yet. At the time I did consider using bike grease instead, but WD40 was closer to hand at the time - either should work.

    Just found this blog after my IDV75 started squeaking.

    My teardrop bearing was also knackered. I had some grease handy so put some on the replacement as the original stuff was pretty much gone. Anyway it's all good and squeak free now. Hopefully it'll be good for a few more years.

    Thanks!

    I've replaced my bearing again yesterday as the other one had worn through, luckily I ordered two last time. I heavily lubricated the bearing with grease this time - hopefully this bearing will last more than a year...

    Many thanks Simon. You've just saved me a lot of money! Got an original Indesit spare on Amazon via L M Electrical for £4.57 + P&P. I cleaned all the old "crud" off of the locking nut and greased the licking nut, rod and bearing well before reassembly. Hopefully this might prolong its life a bit! 20 minute job. Thanks again!

I had the same problem with loud sound and I did everything that you adviced and it helped me but for some time maybe one month. I wanted to change it again but it was okay and I don't know what is wrong with it? I have this model of tumble dryer http://hardware.be/wasdroger/siemens.

  20. Andrew G5 November 2015 at 19:43

    Thanks for the info Simon, I carried out this repair and managed to get the replacement tear-drop bearing from a marketplace seller on Amazon for £2.50! The one thing I would strongly recommend to anyone doing this repair is to use a high temperature grease to slow down the wearing of the new bearing. I used Carlube COPPER SLIP 20g purchased from eBay for £2 including delivery.

    I did notice a greasy substance amongst the iron-filing like detritus caused by the wearing of the old bearing, so there must have been some form of lubrication originally applied to it during manufacturing.

    The bearing does get very hot when the dryer is in use, and I suspect that without using a suitable high-temperature grease the replacement bearing will wear quite quickly. I'm not sure WD40 is viscous enough or has sufficient heat-resistance to lubricate the bearing for a sufficient length of time.

Removed old very worn-out tear-drop bearing (lots of black dust too!) as per your guide, ordered a new bearing from Amazon for a fiver, fitted it today with a liberal application of 3-in-1 silicone lubricant and the dryer is working good as new. You have saved me lots of ££££ with this post! Many, many thanks!!

    Many thanks for this advice, both symptoms and repair guidance were spot on :-)

    Just to mention that in my case the lubrication wasn't just for the purpose of future protection. Initially the new teardrop bearing would not fit, as if the diameter of the hole was a shade too small for the rod. A smear of vaseline sorted it.

    Ah haaa! Ours started howling today. If I put an arm around the back and pressed aganst the rear panel at the back the howling stopped. So it looks like you've identified the culprit. I have an old oilite bush so I'll have a go at making a better version. It will take me a while so definitely not as cost effective as an Amazon repo but it will keep me in the workshop and the wife will think im a hero. Thanks for the info.

  47. Daimlerman27 November 2016 at 17:27

    In addition to the above Today i ordered a bearing from Amazon. As shown in the post, the bearing had almost worn through. We needed the dryer so I fashoned a temporary fix by doing the following:

    I found an 8mm central heating copper pipe joint, a straight one which you would solder. Next, I carefully filed out the hole in the damaged bearing to accept the pipe joint as a snug fit but not so tight it would need hammering in or that would distort it. Once the pipe joint was fitted in the original bearing, I cut it to the exact length so nothing was protruding. This fix effectively replaced the worn away metal with a copper lining. Next, cleaned up the drum shaft, smeared it with copper grease and assembled it to the dryer. It runs very quiet now and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts before I need to fit the new one.

    Hi ya Simon
    We have a tumble dryer that been making a sqeaking noise for about 2 weeks
    It needed fixing and all I did
    Is took the panels off
    and stretched the belt
    Then the noise has eased off.
    Maybe the belt needed stretching and the machine being moved
    Might have fix the problem ??

    After reading this post about year ago, I started packing the bearing with vaseline and it worked a treat although I had to do it every few months. Unfortunately this time it seems the bearing has now snapped �� the bearing comes away from the machine along with the Teardrop part which has now worn all the way through. Anyway thank for the advice, saved me a fortune, even if I did cheat and end up costing myself a new dryer, it has still late another year! Thanks again.

    Ive repaired mine a number of times now. Dont you think this is a rubbish design though. It seems to me that tumble dryers are designed to fail. Those bearings are not even bearing. its simply metal grinding against metal until it grinds its way into the case. and as for those plastic supports and felt sticky seals. DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED.!! I can strip my machine down and do the lot in less than an hour but these machines are RUBBISH.Its little wonder so many catch fire !!

      The bearing should slot back in as before but I recall that you may need to lift the drum a little to get it to slot in. Possibly try putting hand in drum at front of machine and pushing up to help with alignment.

    I followed directions here to replace teardrop bearing (even though it wasn't worn like the OP's image) and I used Carlube Copper XCG020 Multi-purpose grease liberally. I was so happy when it worked!
    However a couple of weeks later, the problem is back.
    I add more grease (or WD40 or 3-in-1 oil) and nothing happens for a couple of minutes. Then the squeaks fade to nothing and bliss... for about 25 minutes or so and then the squeaks come back.
    Since the squeaks are fixed by lubricant on the bearings albeit temporarily, am I correct in assuming it can't be belt or anything else?
    The only things left I can think of are a different type of grease and/or trying to level the dryer.

    hello! Thank you for your information! However I need some advice: when I attempt to fit in the piece; it appears that the screw does not go all the way in, I think due to the pressure that the metal rod that supports the drum seems to be doing. I cannot get the piece to be inserted in the hole. Anyone had an issue like this? Cheers!

    Excellent, really excellent thank you. I couldn't wait the 3 days via Amazon so got the part from the local hardware store just up the road who knew exactly what I needed. Cost me £10.00 but it keeps local businesses happy and I was going with no squeaky squeaky in under an hour. Don't forget everyone you really need to push the centre spindle up as you slide the teardrop bearing in. Thanks for saving me the cost of a new dryer!

    So so helpful. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. I have exactly the same issue. Took the back off and my part looked identical! Part ordered and repair imminent! So grateful. Thank you.

    Any help with this as I have just replaced bearing which was done only 4 months ago with wear and was noisy again?

    I can't get the part in South Africa and is too expensive to ship it here. So I drilled a new hole on the other side, flipped the bearing 180° - now the other side should be good for another 5 to 7 years. https://imgur.com/a/BQMV0na
