The World's #1 Vacuum Cleaner Advice, Repair, Discussion & Information Forum
Welcome to the site. I just linked this from our Facebook and Twitter hoping you will get some thoughtful input.
When pushing and pulling vacuum across carpets there is a strange noise, sometimes an electrical smell a rattle and vibration on the roller housing. (I've been naughty and observed and felt these vibrations with the top cover removed). Could it be related to the clutch mechanism built into the brush spindle?
I just did some random Googling on this out of curiosity. I found one similar reference the guy didn't get an answer to.

I am guessing you have ran it with the belts removed one by one and discounted the brushroll?Surely that leaves only a bent motor spindle or motor bearing issue?
