Sounds like a compressor....get it replaced and it will be quiet.... looks like the unit was dented somehow....the compressor sits on springs inside the housing and can be damaged easily. It must have gone into defrost and then shut off because the thermostat satisfied? Scroll compressors are loud.
@rondev - These seem to be good units. My cousin's A/c co. does Trane, Goodman and Nordyne. I went with Westinghouse (Nordyne; looks just the same, as the maytag, except for the finish. ) to replace a problematic 10 year old lenox. The Nordyne has the BEST warranty out of the 3,& my cousin has 2 Nordynes in his home. Mine, (properly installed) is quiet, and thus far (1 yr) has been trouble free and I'm impressed with the unit's heat pump ability.
@lazyestarranch Price wasnt the main consideration and it was far from the cheapest. We are totally happy how the local distributor ( not the installer, they arent allowed on the property ever again) came to the party and got us sorted out.. the entire outside unit was replaced and then he showed up out of the blue a little while later to follow up. We hear the neighbors unit over ours now. so its So far so good with 12 years of warranty ahead of us.
@JSBSCHWARTZ1 i agree, i've worked for companies that have sold trane and rheem for years and now i work for this company that sells nothing but frigidaire, kelvinator, maytag etc ((nordyne)) and i must say we have very little to no problems with their heat pumps and air conditioners compared to rheem and trane.,, although a lot of heat pumps with scrolls are awfully loud during defrost regardless of their brand. , louder than recips
Even the best manufactures have a lemon slip through here and there but I can tell you that Maytag will stand behind their equipment. Was this installed by a certified Maytag dealer? If so, he should have fixed this unit immediately.
just to add to this.. Maytag did come to the party and clean this up... the unit was replaced and we are very happy with it now.. their local rep/installer however will never set foot on our property again though.
How can this noise be felt in the house?

@TheChaseair Scroll compressors are quieter than reciprocating compressors.
