We've had the same problem and if you don't correct it, you WILL need a tech to REPLACE something. There is a way to 're-align' the needle carrier, in the program where you go to 'head up' and that stuff but I cannot remember it right now...very easy to do and that noise will disappear. It's a mechanical alignment but you can reset it. But let it keep going on and you will have damage!
