My Dishwasher had the same loud Grinding Noise.
It was a piece of a plastic fork lodged behind the macerator blade.
This is at the suction to the pump just under the strainer. check this out first before you pull everything apart. You should be able to get to it by taking the lower arm off and pulling the strainer out. Hope this helps.
I followed the person's thinking above, and then went to YouTube to see how I could perform what they did. The video was great, and within 30 minutes I found a piece of metal under everything *about the size of a hearing aid battery". Not at all sure where it came from, but with three boys, anything can happen.... I could not put the machine back together since I started working on it a midnight and it proved harder to get the screws back in that to take it out. I need to purchase a special tool that will fit the screws well. Wishing me (and you) much luck..YouTube info: "Maytag Quiet Series dishwasher noise repair Pt. 2" Author: Robachino

Ours stopped when we changed from light wash to normal wash. Might be something in the panel associated with the wash cycle. No more clicking...keeping fingers crossed as it has not done it in a couple of months now.
I will like to understand how to access the pump. I unscrew everything inside the dish washer and clean remove all plastic pieces. But the noice is still there It's seam to come from under the diswasher. I hear the noice commung from the engine when I turn the shaft.
Any Idea?
Sounds like something caught in the pump.

Our Maytag Quietseries 300 started doing this also. Model BTT70AWB. Thought it was the motor, replaced it and it is still doing it. Anyone figured this out yet?

my cat runs over and looks under the dishwasher as if something is moving under there. Very loud and starts immediately not during rinse as some folks complain of.
