Loud noise while drying (make sure your volume is set low): AEG Electrolux washer-dryer problem

Does anyone know why our AEG Electrolux washer-dryer is making this horrible noise while drying. This can also happen at some other points of the cycle, but NOT during spinning.
The washing and drying is still fine: is the noise is a sign of a serious problem?

@JIMDP25 Thanks again! However this noise does also occur at some points of the washing cycle too (not while spinning). So we can not entirely avoid it just by avoiding using the drying function.

In the washing cycle there is a point about 2/3 through where the noise starts while the clothes are tumbled slowly, before the final part of the washing cycle. (I will try to catch this on video.)

@JoelFeinstein you need a separate dryer this is how you solve your problem otherwise you risk to loose and the washing function because if something will happen in the drying function this may damage all the electronics of your washing machine do not use the drying function anymore or call for service its dangerous

@JIMDP25 Thanks so much for this info! Is there anything we can do to fix this problem or do we need a new machine?

We have been using the dryer for some time now with this noise: it is still working fine. Is there a risk of fire?
