When running the dishwasher on normal cycle or any other cycle, it makes a very loud noise every couple of minutes and last about 5 minutes each time. I would describe the sound as a cross between a loud buzzing noise and slight grinding sound. any thoughts?

Hi. My guess is that it's the upper arm hitting something then! If it started suddenly I'd check that the upper bar attachment hasn't been dislodged from its proper location on the upper basket, and that the spraybar retaining nut hasn't come loose.
It happens on my machine all the time as the upper arm assembly has worn loose on the upper basket, AND the spraybar is worn where it attached to the static part so the whole thing wobbles as it goes round. An additional washer under the spraybar retaining nut might tighten it up a bit.
Hope this helps you a bit. If it does, a "Fixya" rating would be much appreciated. If it doesn't help you, I'd be grateful if you didn't bother with a rating at all. Cheers, D

No longer "ultra quiet" huh?
A sound during certain cycles indicates a broken part. By the information provided sounds like a pump may be the problem. You may need to contact a service tech about this issue. If the appliance still under warranty, the service should be provided for free.
Every time when you hear noises (other than the normal ones) in the appliance, it indicates there is something wrong and it will worsen over time, so as soon you hear something is not ok, get assistance.

The sounds it is making most possibly are coming from the drain cycle. It is probably finished with the prewash, or the first cycle (depending on what cycle you use). You may have some foreign object down inside the impeller which is why you hear it more now. Often times, a glass may get broken and a small piece gets down inside the pump, or we have seen alot of different things (from cherry pits, to chicken bones). At any rate, you should be able to remove the lower screen inside your dishwasher to a recessed area. You can try and see if you find any objects down inside there and if so, remove them, then replace the screen. If the noise continues, the foreign object may flush itself out eventually. If it gets worse, or continues without any relief, you may need to have a service person come out and take your pump apart to get the foreign object.
