My liebherr fridge makes a loud, mechanical pumping noise every 15-20 minutes. Is this a problem with a water pump? Is there an easy fix.

SOURCE: Braun Tassimo Type 3107

I found that most problems around the tassimo relate to the peircing mechanism being clean and properly in place (it moves sometimes when you open the lid), or that the "window" that reads the barcode needs to be kept clean. When i've gotten all lights blinking or going right to manual, I have found cleaning the window seems to fix the problem more often than not.

hope that helps

If this is a high pitched sound, then this sounds like you have bearings that are starting to go out.  There is not much that you can do to prevent eventual failure.
The only other option that I see is that there is something causing friction inside the pump between the impeller and diffuser.

Pump blocked probably something stopping it, sock, coin etc

Your bearing are failing. Replacing them and the seal at a local electric motor repair shop will likely cost around $50.

Lube the brass bearings on the motor. For some reason the bearing on the bottom nearest to the cooling fan will start to whine. I would guess because it's kicking dust up around the unit. I used a lube that will hold in place. Lube between the bracket that holds the motor together and by the fan. The noise should stop. I also suggest you lube the top bearing as well. The lube I recommend is a Silicone paste type.
