Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn't. Because the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about them. These sounds are normal.

During drain

If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump during the end of draining.

After drain and before spin

When the cycle changes from draining to spinning, you may hear gears engaging.
