Maytag Dependable Care, Quiet Pack, Heavy Duty, Auto Control Dryer
Model LDE9306ACE
S/N 10643575QW

So recently my dryer started to squeak a bit when I start it. The problem is not bad yet. In fact it is intermittent at the moment. The squeaks are short and only last about 10 secs when I do hear them. Also, sometimes when I start it, it kind of rumbles for a second when it starts. (again intermittent)

So there it is. If I have not given you enough info please let me know.

The squeaking is either the idler pulley, belt, or rollers.

Here's the dryer drum roller for your model:

Jeff has a good link that shows you how to take it apart to check the blower wheel:

The rumbling may be the blower wheel starting to strip out from the motor shaft.
