Well, it sounds like one anyway

It's a "whirwhirwhirwhir..." noise just like the Martian Saucers in those 50's SciFi flicks

It just started, and it's during the agitate mode
It changes tone when the agitate action changes (lower tone when agitate is slower)

It's a Whirlpool Gold, Ultimate Care II, a few years old, if that makes a difference

Should I be worried?
Something I should look into?

Thanks in advance for any tips, tricks, suggestions, or solutions

start with your drain pump, it runs backwards in agitate and motor speed effects drain pump speed.
