Congratulations On Your New SQ FL Washer
I would keep using it for a while and see if the noise persists and under what type of loads it dose it, I dough it has anything to do with being level.
These are HD no nonsense washers and are not the quietest machines you will ever experience, for example some knocking in the shocks is normal as the machine speeds up and slows down. John L. | ||

 My 14 year-old Maytag Neptune front loader will sometimes make me think the tub is going to bang itself out of the cabinet at lower spin speeds or walk the machine across the room, but it always smooths out nicely into a quiet top speed spin.
I think it has been mentioned here before that SQ front loaders don't go through the seemingly endless balancing act that most other makes of front loaders infamously do. My Neptune doesn't mess around with balancing either. I'm wondering if your new washer makes the noise it does by design (although a squeak seems abnormal unless it's a spring doing it), and the trade off is cycles that are completed when they should be, as opposed to running an extra 30 minutes trying in vain to balance loads. | ||

Thank you both for the replies. It certainly sounded like a spring related noise - it followed the rhythm of the bounce, not unlike a bed but quieter. | ||
