Hi there, hope someone out there will be able to help...
We have a Bosch frost-free fridge freezer (KGU32124GB) which is approx 5 years old. It seems to be working fine, keeping things cold as it should, apart from the fact it has started to make a horrendous noise!
The noise isn't constant - it seems to happen once or twice an hour, and will last a minute or two. It's pretty loud, and we've eventually worked out (by disconnecting other more accessible parts to rule them out) that it is coming from the back of the appliance, low down, in the middle of the back of the freezer compartment. Have taken a quick vid so you can hear it, which you can view at the following link:

We reckon we may be in need of a new motor. If someone knows about these things, and could confirm what they think is causing the problem and if it's worth tackling it before calling in the experts, that would be MUCH appreciated. Or is it new fridge freezer time for us?
Thanks for reading all - much appreciated.
