It could be a loose tub weight. See if you can track it down by making it noisy - unplug it, take the top off and shake the tub around or check to see if any of the weights are loose. Also check out this article which gives lots of possible causes of noises

It sounds like something somewhere is loose.

Nice one

If it comes loose again you will need to do something to stop it working loose. Undo the nuts enough to get loctite on the thread and try that. You have to tighten them firmly but must be careful not to over tighten because it can snap the bolt or break the (often) plastic housing the bolt is slotted through.
