Speed Queen AWS45NW, about 16 years old and seems to be getting loud on spin cycles. This is my mother's washer and she said she smelled a burn-y smell, but when I was by last night to take a quick look I didnt notice any odor. Bearings? Belt? Something with the idler? Any advice?

Sounds like bearings. They don't have to smell to be bad.

Probably bearing. They get loud and sometimes lock up causing the belt to burn.
