CL447WV dryer banging whilst rotating?

thanks for the replies guys but.............................all rivets are tight onto inner drum with no play. the belt is ok as i took the top lid off and examined it very thoroughly for any signs of wear or tears etc. i ran the drum with the top lid off and using a plastic card, i held the front of the drum up and the banging noise stopped..when i let it go again, the banging started..

Check the shaft where it connects to the drum as the rivets come loose and allow the inner drum to move around and bang.shine a torch into the drum at the back in the centre and check how secure the 3 rivet heads are to the drum.any play will cause problems.
