My Maytag washer is expierencing a loud noise when it kicks into the agitation cycle. When agitation begins, it will run for a minute or so then stop, and not restart. It also has a bad smell in the wash tub when this occurs. If I hold the start knob in just a little bit, it quiets down to normal, sounds like it agitates faster (normally), and will continue to run. When I let the knob out the noise begins again and it shuts down. If I let it cycle by itself from the start, it keeps shutting off, and then turning on a few minutes later, then repeats this.

Maytag Atlantis Washer makes loud noise only during wash cycle (not spin)

Top Loader? That sounds like a gearbox problem. It is not an easy fix. With that much use and those many years, it is probably time for a new one. A new High Efficiency Front Loader, will save you a fortune in water, electricity and detergent.

Try this forum though if you want to try and get it fixed.

Maytag performa washer grinding noise

Sounds like the water pump is going out on it. The part runs about $80 and should only take about 45 minutes to install.

Washer model PAVT244AWW agitation noise

Sounds like the motor is going bad. It will only get louder before it finally stops. There is a device that assists the agitation motion that may be bad or is going bad.

"howling" noise during spin cycle (still there after changing burned off belt)

Travioso, there was two service flashes out on this model concerning the seal and bearing which means they had an issue with this washer. The howling noise you are hearing is the bearing and will need the new designed triple seal and bearing kit. This should be covered under your warranty, I believe it is 5 years. The numbers for the service flashes are TDL-0048A-B. Call Maytag and inquire about these service flashes, these should be covered. Catriver.
